Also, it includes documentation of the technical adequacy of the assessment program for its intended purposes.  \nOnly use the 2026 guide to interpret results from tests given in 2026. Always use the guide published for the year of the test to interpret student scores.  \nThe National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) offers the ASE Entry-level certification tests, which are appropriate for evaluating students who are near the end of their studies in the areas of Automobile Service and Repair, Collision Repair and Refinish, and Medium/Heavy Duty Truck.  \nThe ASE Education Foundation administers the industry's accreditation program for career-entry Automobile Service and Repair, Collision Repair and Refinish, and Medium/Heavy Duty Truck training programs. The standards for becoming an ASE accredited program include specifications covering the content of instruction, tools and equipment, hours, and instructor qualifications. Concurrently, ASE conducts periodic analyses of the tasks and knowledge required to successfully perform many of the vehicle service jobs in the automotive industry. The task lists developed by ASE serve as the basis for the entry-level task lists. In this way, the contents of the ASE Entry-level tests are kept current and are linked to the specific tasks and knowledge requisite to the successful performance of the various automotive service occupations.  \nThe ASE Entry-level certification tests are intended for students completing two-year secondary or postsecondary automotive technician training programs.  \nNotice to organizations using the ASE entry-level examinations:  \nThe National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) has developed these tests expressly for use in the context of student evaluation and voluntary entry-level certification, and all future revisions and refinements will be made in that context. ASE expressly disclaims any responsibility for the actions of organizations or entities which decide to use these examinations in any context other than voluntary entry-level evaluation.  \nQuestions pertaining to this program should be directed to the ASE Education Foundation at 1503 Edwards Ferry Rd. , NE, Suite 201, Leesburg, VA 20176. Phone 800-362-0544.
