June 7-13, 2010 is Automotive Service Professionals Week
Leesburg, VA., January 27, 2010 – The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) has declared June 7-13, 2010, as National Automotive Service Professionals Week. This year marks the fifth anniversary of National Automotive Service Professional's Week, created to honor the commitment and dedication of automotive, truck and collision technicians, along with parts specialists and other support professionals who serve the motoring public. For 2010, ASE continues this recognition and has it listed in the 2010 Chase's Calendar of Events.
“Twenty-three states issued proclamations honoring National Automotive Service Professionals Week in 2009,” said Trish Serratore, ASE Senior VP. “We will once again push to have all fifty states recognize the outstanding work done by automotive professionals across the nation.” As in years past, ASE will provide a form letter and enlist the aid of local shop owners in each state to petition their respective Governors to mark this special week.
“ASE created National Automotive Service Professionals Week to acknowledge the skill and dedication of the men and women who service and maintain the highly complex vehicles upon which we depend so much for our day-to-day transportation,” said Tim Zilke, ASE president and CEO. “ASE is proud to help recognize these individuals for their commitment to their customers, their craft and the American economy.”
Incorporated on June 12, 1972, the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence was established as a non-profit organization to help improve the quality of automotive service and repair through the voluntary testing and certification of automotive technicians and parts specialists. Today, there are nearly 400,000 ASE-certified professionals who work in dealerships, independent shops, service stations, collision repair shops, auto parts stores, fleets, machine shops, schools and colleges throughout the country.
