ASE will conduct a conference with industry stakeholders in mid-September to determine how technicians can be accurately and fairly assessed for competency in diagnosing, repairing, replacing and calibrating Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) and components. Participants will be from the OE manufacturers, ADAS suppliers, employers, technicians and industry associations in the automobile, medium/heavy truck and collision repair sectors.
A launch timetable will be determined based on additional workshops held to develop the scope and the number of assessments required for the ADAS body of knowledge.
The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) was established in 1972 as a non-profit organization to help improve the quality of automotive service and repair through the voluntary testing and certification of automotive technicians and parts specialists. Today, there are approximately a quarter of a million ASE Certified professionals at work in dealerships, independent shops, collision repair shops, auto parts stores, fleets, schools and colleges throughout the country.
