Auto Training Scool

Iroshana · February 22, 2008

Anybody has an idea about a good auto mechanics training school in SL? Its really nice if we have one to learn it part time.

I understood there are many ppl here are really good auto engineers. If anybody capable to start a part time technical sessions, I think there is a good demand. I'm so keen to learn auto mechanics. But no such a place

Even somebody has a garage, just tell me. I like to come and work part time for free. Just to learn auto mechanics.

Guys & Girls,

Training is such an asset in today's motor world. The job nowadays is more brain than brawn-any body can be thought to remove and re fit nuts and bolts but diagnosing a complex engine management system require a good understanding of how it works as well as being able to use computer diagnostics with scopes etc.

The job is not one the female population took to even here in the UK in significant numbers much to the dissapointment of some of us far thinking people in the trade.

We have almost 50/50 split on drivers here and I am certain the lady drivers would prefer to see a female technician deal with their problem car as much as an experienced male tec. Sadly for the young females here hairdressing and the till at Tesco seems more attractive than a job as a trained professional technician. Nothing wrong with Hair Dressing but in the UK we seem to have few too many so the pay is poor a lot lower than for a vehicle technician.

So Cinderella Train up get qualified and set up your own, I am sure the female car owners of SL will appreciate you. And the males just smile and take their money

So go for it all Train to gain
