SUCCESS IN THE FIELD

Following are the qualities and skills that are necessary for success in the field of Automotive Technology:

  • Organizational skills are necessary to maintain safety and ensure accountability of parts
  • Mechanical skills are necessary to take apart major parts for repairs and be able to put them back together 
  • Dexterity is necessary in order to perform the many tasks that require steady hands and good eye-hand coordination   

  • Detail orientation is necessary because many problems are the result of misalignments or other easy-to-miss causes 
  • Customer-service skills are necessary to discuss automotive problems and their solutions with customers



FRAMEWORKS

The Automotive Technology Frameworks identify the competencies that students will have the opportunity to learn in a four-year time span. 


Articulation Agreements

State articulation agreements are a uniform and consistent way for students in our Automotive Technology program to enroll in any Massachusetts community college and be awarded credits for work completed at Chicopee Comprehensive High School. Our Automotive Technology program has an additional local articulation agreement with Keene State College, which recognizes credits beyond the standard 3 credit state recognition.


These agreements allow for a seamless continuation of education for our students.
