What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: proficient (Level 3)(based on Bachelor's Degree)

  • Complex drivability and electrical faults — diagnose autonomously across vehicle makes.
  • OEM service information and TSBs — apply correctly to non-obvious problems.
  • Engine, transmission, and major component R&R — execute on common platforms.
  • Network and module-related issues (CAN, programming) — diagnose and repair on supported platforms.
  • Heavy-line and internal repairs — plan and complete to manufacturer spec.
  • Customer-pay diagnostics — frame, scope, and communicate clearly through the advisor.
  • Comebacks and chronic concerns — investigate and resolve with structured root-cause work.
  • Newer technicians on diagnostic technique — mentor across the shop.
  • Specialty equipment (alignment, A/C, scan tools) — operate and interpret with full confidence.
  • Estimates and labor times — produce credibly for non-routine work.
