FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SCC Automotive Programs Receive National Certification

Four automotive training programs at Southeast Community College in Milford, Nebraska have received certification by NATEF and The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). The Automotive
Technology Program, Daimler Chrysler (CAP) College Automotive Program, Ford (ASSET) � Automotive Student Service Educational Training Program, and the
General Motors (ASEP) � Automotive Service Educational Program all received certification. These programs were certified in Engine Repair, Automotive Transmission/Transaxles, Manual Drive Transmissions and Axles, Suspension and Wheel Alignment, Brakes, Electrical Systems, Heating and Air Conditioning and Engine Performance.

To achieve this coveted recognition, the school�s automotive training program underwent rigorous evaluation by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF). Nationally accepted standards of excellence in areas such as instruction, facilities, and equipment were used.

�This is great news for automotive-minded young people and their parents,�said Donald Seyfer, NATEF Chair. �Because this program increases cooperation between local education and industry leaders, it gives added assurance that Southeast Community College�s graduates will be employable entry-level technicians. As a result of the quality education provided by Southeast Community College, the motoring public will benefit since better repair technicians will join the work force.� Upon completion of the evaluation, NATEF recommended that SCC be certified by The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). ASE is a national non-profit organization which tests and certifies repair technicians, in addition to certifying automotive training programs.

Glenn Williams, Transportation Dean added, �During the past few months, we have worked closely with NATEF to make certain that our programs would meet strict industry standards, and now we are delighted to join the ranks of the ASE certified training programs. Students will be assured of a quality education, and shop owners will be assured of getting quality job applicants.�
