| Training providers
order ASE/CASE materials (Standards, Application, Polices/Procedures)
from NATEF. After completing their self-evaluation, the provider
submits copies of their completed ASE/CASE application for review
by NATEF. If deemed complete by NATEF, a one-day onsite evaluation
is scheduled and undertaken with an Evaluation Team Leader (ETL)
and team members. After the onsite evaluation, the ETL makes
a report and recommendation to NATEF for certification of the
training provider. NATEF reviews the report and circulates it
to the members of the In-Service Training Committee. With committee
agreement, NATEF notifies the provider that they have received
ASE certification as a training provider of Continuing Automotive
Service Education. If the provider is not eligible for certification,
NATEF will identify the areas needing improvement. At
this time there will be a three year certification cycle with
a update report required after years one and two. Recertification
will use the same process as the initial certification.
An ASE/CASE Training Provider's Code of
Ethics has also been developed. Certified training providers
must sign off on the Code and agree to abide by its principles. |
