GENERAL MOTORS AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM A.A.S. DEGREEThe GM-ASEP is a special program developed by Brookdale’s Automotive Department in conjunction with General Motors Corporation to upgrade the competency and professional level of the incoming dealership technician. The two-year program will require the student to attend classes at Brookdale for a portion of each semester, and then work in a GM dealership for the remaining portion of the semester. This is a rigorous training program which requires certain testing and prerequisites prior to acceptance. As an A.A.S. degree, this option is not designed for transfer to a four-year school, but many courses may prove to be transferable.

Graduates of this program will be able to:

■ Demonstrate proficiency in the diagnosis of a General Motors automobile malfunction

■ Demonstrate competency in the repair and service of the General Motors product

■ Communicate effectively with customers and members of the automotive team

■ Demonstrate professional accountability
