Our job board is continually growing with more opportunities that students with the right skills can pursue. Now, let’s talk a little bit about the professional potential for students who complete automotive service technician training.

Auto Service Technician Salary & Job Growth

Of course you are probably wondering about the potential money you might earn when you are hired. It’s also a good idea to consider the job growth when choosing any career path. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the average median wage for auto mechanics was $46,880 per year, according to May 2021 data. As far as job growth goes, the BLS predicts that auto service tech jobs will keep up with the estimated job growth for all other occupations.

Your chances for earning potential and getting hired will depend on a variety of factors. Your skill level, the job market in your city, and what kinds of shops you choose to work at. For instance, you might get paid more working at a shop fixing engines, than a shop that focuses on oil changes. When you compare automotive service technician schools, be sure to ask what kinds of opportunities their students usually pursue. You should also ask if they have relationships with employers who might consider you once you complete your automotive service technician classes.

Automotive Service Technician Training Programs

You can bet your auto mechanic courses will give you a lot of hands-on practice, fixing all kinds of mechanical issues with cars, trucks, and other types of motorized vehicles. Most auto mechanic programs are short-term, giving students a chance to start working in months, instead of years. When you speak with automotive schools, make sure you understand how long the program is, and if the class schedule will work for you. Some of your options may include night classes or weekend sessions that work around your regular schedule.

Here are some examples of automotive service technician classes:
• Engine overhaul
• Transmissions (manual and auto)
• Suspensions
• Brakes
• Electrical
• HVAC
• Certification prep

Some programs will include classes that show you how to repair small engines and other types of mechanical skills you can use. Some mechanics earn their income from performing independent work or owning their own businesses. You might consider these avenues as well as you gain experience.
