ASE Connections Auto Suspension and Steering is correlated to standards established by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) and the ASE Education Foundation. These standards were developed with input from industry experts to ensure they reflect the skills students and technicians must master to succeed in the automobile service and repair industry. ASE certification is the benchmark for automobile repair technicians. It is recommended that you seek ASE certification once you have sufficient knowledge and meet the work experience requirements. Visit the ASE website for more information on ASE certification. The ASE Education Foundation has established a training program accreditation process designed to improve the qual- ity of training offered at both the secondary and postsecondary levels. The ASE Education Foundation grants accreditation to programs that comply with their evaluation procedure, meet established standards, and adhere to the policies set forth by the organization.
