State-of-the Art Skills

If your career goal is to become a GM certified automotive technician, then the General Motors Automotive Service Educational Program (GM ASEP) is for you.

Through Tri-C's unique cooperation with General Motors, GM ASEP trains highly specialized service technicians for General Motors dealers and ACDelco Professional Service Centers.

In-dealership Experience

During paid internship sessions, GM ASEP Students learn to apply their state-of-the-art skills on customers' vehicles in a General Motors dealership or ACDelco Professional Service Center while working with their certified service technician mentor.

General Motors supports student success in our GM ASEP program by donating vehicles and their components as well as providing access to technical information and online training. This ensures that you are training on the latest GM products and technology in this hands-on program, putting you on the path to a successful career as a GM-certified technician.

In addition, students in the GM ASEP program continue to reinforce their learning outside the classroom. Your internship gives you the opportunity to work with technicians who can share tips that took them years to learn, putting you way ahead of others who have only trained out of textbooks.
