Assured Automotive

Students can receive hands-on industry training with the Assured Automotive Co-op program

Students will learn everything from the basics of industry standards, the workings of the detail department, vehicle repair, safety procedures, how to use grinders, prep/paint⁠—students will even learn techniques performed by their skilled Assured tech mentors as they train in their shadows.
 
Once students have been introduced to the trade, they will get the opportunity to choose which area of collision repair they’d like to focus on. The program is uniquely tailored to include trainers who are experienced with a wide range of students to allow for maximum learning.
 
The Co-op program runs year-round with morning or afternoon placements, and is an open and inclusive program to those of all genders. To qualify for the program students must be in Grade 11 or above. Successful completion of the Co-op has lead 65-80% of students to gain employment in the Automotive Industry. All tools/equipment are provided, with the exception of boots.
 
With the ability to transfer from a co-op into an apprenticeship the large Assured Network allows students the flexibility to move around. Wherever their journey takes them, there is an Assured location to accommodate.
 
Available at many Assured locations across Canada, students are encouraged to reach out to their schools’ co-op/guidance teacher or message visit assuredauto.ca/contact to request more information.
 
For those with passion for the industry, a positive attitude and a willingness to learn the sky’s the limit!
