Automotive Technician
& Mechanic Training

Essential: Before. Now. Always

As a student in the Automotive Technology Program, you’ll be learning basic automotive maintenance, diagnostic procedures and effective repair methods, using testing equipment and specialized tools. The program also includes training on electrical, HVAC, engine performance, suspension, steering, brake systems, and transmission diagnosis and repair.

But it’s not all boring classroom lectures at J‑Tech Institute, an auto mechanic school. We believe the best training comes from learning in a realistic setting. Our shop settings are designed to represent the actual automotive environments you could expect to find working in the automotive industry. What better way to prepare graduates for entry-level careers in automotive technology?

YES! I want to learn more about an essential career pathway.

what our grads have to say

“J-Tech is literally one of the best decisions I made when I decided to go back to school. With the education they offered and the push for me to do things that I don't like to do to help better me in my career path now... It was a life changer, it was a good decision to come here.”

Myrna VasquezAutomotive Technology

"I decided to go to J-Tech because when I toured the school and saw they had all the latest and greatest gadgets and all the best technology at the time. If you are interested in going to J-Tech, don't sit and wait to think about it, just go. Everyone here is welcoming and will help you out."

“I left the military in 2014. My return home did not allow me ample time to prepare for civilian life. I faced some difficult roads when I started my school search and trying to get the financial side covered. But once I got to J-Tech it was totally different. They helped me along the whole entire process. I never had a hiccup.”
