What Will I Learn?

This course is an intermediate level course, which requires students to demonstrate practical skills in combination with automotive repair theory.

The course consists of two parts:

  • 50 hours of online theory

  • 50 hour work placement coordinated by Sask DLC

All students, parents and mentors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with our work placement policy.

We will do our best to find a local work placement; however, we may not be able to accommodate placements in all situations, and/or some travel may be required. 
Travel is at the student’s expense. If you have questions about work placements or Sask DLC courses, email [email protected] or call our main office at 306-252-1000.
