“The OEM certification from Certified Collision Care emphasizes the world-class education our students receive and will help to increase their job-readiness upon graduating.”
OEM certification recognizes organizations that have made investments required to ensure vehicles are properly repaired to auto manufacturer specifications.
Saskatchewan Polytechnic said it followed the same process as collision repair facilities to receive certification.
The post-secondary institution offers a one-year certificate and provides the in-school portion of apprenticeship training for the auto body technician programs.
Certified Collision Care is the Canadian division of Assured Performance Network, the largest network of OEM certified repair providers in the world.
