Those who enjoy working on cars and trucks should consider Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Automotive Service Technician program. This program can fast-track students into a career. In less than a year, students could be working as a technician in an automotive shop, car and truck dealership, specialty shop, service station or transportation company.

Students will need good problem-solving skills, mechanical aptitude and manual dexterity. At the end of the program, students will have transferable skills they can apply to other trades, including agricultural machinery technician, heavy duty equipment technician, truck and transport mechanic. Students will learn how to diagnose, repair, service and maintain advanced mechanical and electrical systems in today’s vehicles.
