Start Your Automotive Career with Wake Tech and the NC Auto Expo

Have you wanted to pursue a career in the Auto Industry? Here’s your chance!


It’s an exciting time to be a part of the Automotive Industry. The industry has changed drastically over the past 10 years. Mechanics now work with electronic equipment, as well as tools, and they must understand computer diagnostics along with the basics of vehicle repair.

Due to the growth of the Automotive Industry, there is an increased demand for skilled workers. These are not only great jobs, but great paying jobs with a starting salary between $50,000 – $70,000.

If you’ve been considering getting into the Automotive Industry, there is no better time than NOW! Wake Tech Community College offers affordable Automotive Systems Technology and Collision Repair and Refinishing Technology degrees. The average cost is $3,500 a semester – and scholarships are available.
