The Level 2 Certificate is a specialization in Automotive Technology (AUT) that allows students to go a little deeper with their education and focus on a particular area to gain even more skills. You can update your skills if you are currently employed, or enhance your associate degree by adding an additional specialization.  Whichever you choose, you can count on getting a great education.  Texas State Technical College AUT program is ranked the leader in post-secondary automotive education. Backed by faculty with dozens of years of industry experience and an advisory board comprised of automotive industry leaders, TSTC offers a curriculum that matches what employers seek.

You can also rest assured your skills are current, because the AUT program is certified by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation and its instructors are certified by National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence, a standard most employers look for in today’s competitive climate.
