The ASE Renewal App is not only an easy way to renew ASE automobile and light truck certifications, but it is also an innovative learning tool that helps service professionals increase their awareness and knowledge of the technology found in today's complex vehicles.

“Over 16,500 automotive service professionals are using the ASE Renewal App to keep their ASE certifications current,” said Dave Johnson, ASE president and CEO. “However, they are also utilizing the renewal app as an ongoing learning resource to continue to validate their technical knowledge and stay up to date on ever-changing service and repair information and requirements.”

The ASE Renewal App makes it easy to renew ASE automobile and light truck (A-series) certifications without having to take time off work or go to a secure test center for testing. Service professionals can conveniently extend their A1-A9 certifications using the web app on a PC or the mobile app on a cell phone or tablet.

“With the ASE Renewal App, automotive service professionals can answer a few questions each month and instantly see which answers are correct and why,” said Johnson. “They can also track their progress using the app’s dashboard and get a real-time look at their current progress and access to remediation.”

New first-time subscribers will receive a one-year extension to all their current A1-A9 certifications. This extension is designed to eliminate the concern of having their credentials expire before they can earn an extension. In addition to the new subscriber extension, new subscribers can earn an additional year extension during their first subscription.
