The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) updated its ASE Renewal App to offer new features such as the option for employers to purchase an app subscription for their employees.
In collaboration with industry experts, the app provides automotive professionals with a remote option for managing their certifications and testing their technical knowledge via their phone, tablet, or computer.
“Additions and enhancements to the ASE Renewal App are made on a consistent basis in order to improve functionality and make it easier for automotive service professionals to renew their certifications,” said Tim Zilke, ASE president and CEO. “Our most recent update allows shop owners and employers to purchase subscriptions for their employees through their myASE company account and provide them with an added benefit to help keep their A1-A9 certifications current without taking time off to visit a test center.”
By visiting the ASE website at www.ASE.com/subscribe, users can review the steps to subscribe, based upon their situation. Automotive service professionals can also access this page by going to www.ASErenewalApp.com and clicking on the subscribe button.
A subscription can only be purchased for employees who are not currently subscribed to the app and cannot be purchased by the employer if the employee has chosen autorenewal unless the employee removes the autorenewal request. Employers can choose autorenewal for their purchases and can remove technicians individually from the autorenewal process.
Since the introduction of the ASE Renewal App last year, nearly 11,000 automotive service professionals are now using the application to extend their A1-A9 certifications.
