Why Choose ATC?

Here are 4 reasons to choose Automotive Training Centre

Smaller classes for better learning outcomes

Flexible schedule: study while you work

Professional real world, industry experienced instructors

Intense hands-on training so you can master your skill set

Angelo De Ciccio Automotive Service Technician

I chose to come to ATC because I was referred by a student that was already going there and he enjoyed the program very much. The length of the program is good as it is fast paced and there is no time wasted. With this training, I learned the “shortcuts” that are used in the industry, while still doing the right procedures. And all instructors provide you with equal amounts of knowledge and instruction. The length of the stage is good too, and on top of that, the stage counts on your hours and you get paid to do it! The flexible hours and the fact that the program is offered in French and in English is a plus. What’s also cool is that the school still help’s you after you’re done your training.

Where I work, they saw what I could do. And that’s because of what I learned at ATC. Right then, they knew they could trust me.
