3 ways for technicians to take ASE tests

Dec. 15, 2022
Technicians can take the tests in-person or remotely, and renew certifications with the ASE renewal app.

Technicians looking to take certification or recertification tests through the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) now can take the tests three different ways. 

1. In-person

ASE in-person testing is available throughout the year and is conducted days, nights, and weekends at more than 450 secured, proctored Prometric test centers. 

2. ASE renewal app

Those with unexpired automobile certifications (A1-A9) can use the ASE renewal app for recertification, making it easy to extend the expiration date of their ASE certifications without having to take time off or go to a secure test center for testing.

3. Remote testing 

ASE now offers ProProctor remote testing as an online recertification solution for all ASE recertification tests, excluding L1 and L2 tests.

For technicians who have registered by Dec. 31, 2022, there are 90 days to schedule an appointment to take their selected ASE tests.
