FasTrack Auto Body Training Center- The Hub of Auto Body Training- aspires to provide the most comprehensive approach to training for the Auto Body industry.
Technical classes will allow a hands-on experience in a shop atmosphere along with classroom instruction.
Looking for a neutral space where you can advance your knowledge and skills? We welcome everyone from independent to dealership body shops alike.
Our 3 Training Platforms include:
- APPRENTICE PROGRAM
- PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
- ADULT EDUCATION
APPRENTICE PROGRAM prepares people for a new career path in the Auto Body Industry. The FasTrack approach is to train the apprentice and equip them with the skills needed for an entry-level position in a body shop. Upon completion of the 60-hour program, the apprentice will be employed in an approved 'mentor' shop.
Alongside the apprentice program is an equally vital mentor-training program for the participating shops.
Bridging the two together will help to ensure the future success of the overall program. Our goal through this training process is achieved by:
- Enabling people to find quality shops in which to work.
- Connecting body shops with new and motivated employees.
- Ensuring the future of the Auto Body Industry by adding much needed and qualified technicians to the work force.
