Training
Training to become auto body mechanics includes a combination of classroom assignments, lab studies and internships at service centers or garages to obtain hands-on training. When choosing a training program, it’s important to choose one that’s accredited because you’ll need this when you apply for certifications. Many training programs have courses that actually prepare the students to take the certification exams.
Many auto body colleges offer training programs through distance learning. While the hands-on training must be completed in person, many of the courses can be completed online. The Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair (I-CAR) also offers advanced training for aspiring auto body mechanics.
