ASE Certified

ASE Certified: Automotive Service Excellence certification — a national, voluntary credentialing program that requires automotive technicians to pass written exams and document hands-on experience in specific repair disciplines. ASE certification is renewed every 5 years.

Where ASE Certified comes up in your repair

You’ll see “ASE Certified” referenced in collision repair estimates, insurance supplement requests, repair documentation, and conversations with your body shop or insurance adjuster. Understanding what it means helps you know what you’re agreeing to and what the work actually involves.
