Auto Glass Academy offers professional instruction on the removal, replacement, and repair of auto glass.

Auto Glass Academy announced they are now a licensed education facility accredited by the Texas Workforce Commission.

The Auto Glass Academy completed the state of Texas’ examination process and received its license on November 26th, 2019. Since 1992, Auto Glass Academy has been offering professional instruction on the removal, replacement, and repair of auto glass to technicians, owners, and entrepreneurs that want a strong foundation to perform quality work. The curriculum is built on over 30 years of global research, product development, and industry-wide training in an expansive range of environments. Students are trained on the ANSI/AGRSS Standards as well as Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.

A hands-on approach is critical to understanding the importance of how the body and glass of automobiles work together, and with the Auto Glass Academy, students will receive hands-on training throughout the five-day course with industry recognized instructors. The company also says that the course not only equips students with the knowledge of auto glass removal, replacement, and repair, but provides them with more advanced skills to apply in their careers.

“I’m ecstatic to announce that we are now a licensed Texas education facility,” said Gilbert Gutierrez, global education director, Auto Glass Academy. “Now that we are licensed in Texas, I’m eager to see the impact the future holds for all of our locations throughout the country.”

Students receive an Auto Glass Academy certification of completion at the end of the course. The option to reserve a seat to take the exam to become an AGSC Accredited Technician with the Auto Glass Safety Council (AGSC) will also be offered to all students.
