The Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) Education Foundation has granted the highest level of accreditation to Texas-based South Plains College (SPC), reports the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.
Master Automobile Service Technology Accreditation was given to SPC’s campus in Levelland, Texas, as well as its Career and Technical Center in Lubbock, Texas, for their automotive training programs.
According to Gary Ham, automotive program coordinator at the SPC Levelland campus, the school collaborated with the ASE Education Foundation over the past few months to ensure they met nationally accepted standards of excellence in curriculum and equipment.
This past January, Lubbock Career and Technical Center Assistant Professor of Automotive Technology Marc Wischkaemper was also granted ASE World Class Technician status, as also reported by the Avalanche-Journal.
“With this accreditation, students will be assured of a quality education, and shop owners will be assured of getting quality job applicants,” said Gary Ufford, automotive program coordinator at Lubbock Career and Technical Center.
