About the Career
Most of us place great value on owning and operating our own vehicles. Our independence stems from our ability to jump in our cars and trucks and go wherever we want, whenever we want. When our independence is threatened because our vehicles aren't working properly, the first person we seek is a qualified automotive maintenance technician. If you're mechanically talented, like to solve problems, and enjoy working with people, success in the automotive maintenance field may be just down the road for you.

Testimonials
“When I graduated from LTC's Automotive Maintenance Technician program, I had already been working for a year at a local dealership. Since then, I've achieved many career goals-the ASE Masters Award and several certificates from the Ford Motor Company, including engine performance specialist, brake systems specialist, and engine repair specialist. I'm currently working on receiving my transmission specialist certificate that would earn me a Ford Senior Master Technician Award, the highest award given to a Ford service mechanic. None of this would have been possible without the well-trained teachers from the automotive service department at LTC.”
