performance, accessories, and all mechanical systems of an automobile.
The program is focused on hands-on activities with most learning taking
place in lab settings with on-the-car training. All of Dunwoody’s Automotive
Service Technology instructors are ASE certified by the National Institute for
Automotive Service Excellence. The program itself is certified by the National
Automotive Technicians Education Foundation.
