Many NAPA AutoCare Centers employ qualified ASE-certified technicians. ASE certification takes the guesswork out of finding a good technician. The independent, non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) tests and certifies the competence of individual automotive repair technicians so you can be assured of their skills and knowledge. Here's why many NAPA AutoCare Center owners employ ASE-Certified repair professionals ... and why you should ask for them when you need repairs:

Proven Experience

Skills and Knowledge technicians must pass to become certified, at least one of ASE's 40-plus difficult national exams and provide proof of two years of relevant work experience. Prior to taking ASE exams, many technicians attend training classes or put in hours of study to prepare.

Changing Technology

Today's complex vehicles demand current technical knowledge. ASE requires technicians to re-test every five years to keep up with technology and to remain certified.

Commitment to Quality

Technicians who have invested the time and expense to earn ASE certification take pride in their work, and it shows in the service they provide. Look for the blue-and-white ASE sign at your local NAPA AutoCare Center. ASE-Certified technicians wear the ASE shoulder insignia, and their credentials are often posted in the customer service area.
