[QUOTE="Top_Fuel, post: 1519918, member: 11244"] Are you thinking about becoming an auto technician? If so, you want to do some research and make sure that's the career you really want. Wyotech's marketing and infomercials glorify the profession. The commercials make me laugh when they show the Wyotech "student" (an obvious model) getting in his Vette with the nice looking chick riding shotgun. Most auto techs I know either 1) got out of the business because they couldn't make any money, or 2) they stayed in but they aren't making much and don't have good benefits. I'm not saying there isn't money to be made out there, but it's a tough business for sure. Do you have a local community college with an automotive program? I have an associates degree in Automotive Technology from my local communtity college. They run an excellent program that is supported by all the major domestic manufacturers. They will even get you set up to work in local dealerships as an apprentice. I think I spent less than $3,500 in course fees and books to get that degree. My guess is $3,500 would pay for about 2 months at Wyotech. -Greg [/QUOTE]
