Are you currently an automotive student, recent automotive graduate or experienced collision tech?

Come explore the various roles within the realm of auto body repair and collision. Whether you're interested in hands-on work, management, or a mix of both, there are exciting paths to consider:

Collision Repair Technician:

As a collision repair technician, your primary responsibility is to assess, repair, and replace damaged or worn-out body parts on vehicles. This includes panels, fenders, doors, and bumpers.
You'll determine whether the damage has affected the structural integrity of the vehicle and check if any mechanical repairs are necessary.
Finally, you'll restore the vehicle to its original condition, both in terms of appearance and functionality.

Vehicle Restoration Specialist:

If you're looking for a flexible, creative, and exciting career, vehicle restoration might be a perfect fit.
Vehicle restoration can be as niche or as broad as you like, depending on your interests and skills.
As a vehicle restorer, you'll need a good understanding of automotive mechanics and an appreciation for the aesthetics of various vehicles.
Techniques you'll use include sandblasting, welding, painting, and upholstery.
Classic car restoration, in particular, is popular and rewarding.
