The 2012 NATEF Model
In June 2012 NATEF published a new model forautomobile program standards. This new modelintroduced standards based on three (3) levels ratherthan by automobile area (brakes, electrical/electronicsystems, etc). The three levels are: Maintenance &
Light Repair (MLR), Automobile Service Technology(AST), and Master Automobile Service Technology(MAST). Each successive level includes all the tasks ofthe previous level in addition to newly designated tasks.In other words, the AST task list includes all of the MLR
tasks plus additional tasks. The MAST task list includesall of AST tasks plus additional tasks specifically forMAST. Obtained from http://natef.org/documents/2012autoprogramstandards-

What is a Task?
A task is a psychomotor or cognitive entry-level
learning activity consisting of one or more
measureable steps accomplished through an
instructor presentation, demonstration,visualization or a student application. Obtained from http://natef.org/documents/2012autoprogramstandards-
final.pdf
It should be noted that each task is notdedicated an hour allotmentsome tasks take
longer than others.

One NATEF Assumption
Individual courses of study will differ
across automobile technician training
programs
Development of appropriate learning
delivery systems and tests which monitor
student progress will be the responsibility
of the individual training program Obtained from http://natef.org/documents/2012autoprogramstandards-

NATEF Does Not Endorse
Curriculum
NATEF does not endorse specific
curricular materials nor provide instruction.It does, however, set standards for the
content of instruction, which includes
tasks, tools and equipment, hours, and
instructor qualifications. (Obtained fromhttp://www.natef.org/program.cfm)

Basically
NATEF provides the required tasks and
hours, you provide the program course
structure, curriculum, and student
materials.

So You Need a First Course
What will your first course look like?
How will it feed your advanced programs?
How could it serve a community need? How can you generate more informed
consumers AND increase the number of
highly-qualified technicians? How can you serve both populations at the
same time?

Attracting Non-Traditional Students
Defined:
What is a Non Traditional Student?
A non-traditional student would be any male or
female that is enrolled in a program of study wherethe opposite gender accounts for more than 75%,
such as a male student enrolled in Health and
Human Services or a female in Automotive
Technology. Obtained from http://www.gptc.edu/content.cfm?PageCode=other_non_traditional

23/41
The Case for Non-Traditional
Students Careers should be based on abilities and interests, not
gender stereotypes.
Men and women spend more than 30 years in theworkplace and why not enjoy it?
Women can earn up to 30% more working innontraditional jobs.
The right occupation can support other life goals.
Nontraditional students can learn new ways of thinkingand dealing with others.
New skills will be needed in key fields. Less than one-third of new occupations require a four-
year degree. Obtained from http://www.hawaii.edu/cte/publications/nontrad1.pdf

How can an Intro course be rigorous?
Well, its already relevant all drivers should knowthe basics of how cars work.
MLR/Entry Level Programs are Rigorous TheyRequire Students to:
Learn in the Cognitive (knowledge), Affective (attitudes),and Psychomotor(skills) domains.
Think and work.
Apply knowledge across disciplines.
Apply knowledge to real-world predictable situations(e.g., change oil, rotate tires, check tire pressure, periodicinspections, check fluid levels).
Apply knowledge they learned to real-worldunpredictablesituations (e.g., burned out headlight, dead battery, flat tire,burst radiator hose, car stuck) remember that uniformedconsumer!

model to another, but if students
understand the basic concepts and know
where to get the informationthen theyare empowered!

MLR Example
It is difficult to generalize, since every secondaryand post-secondary school approaches thisuniquely. But if MLR requires 540 hours, then
It takes a minimum of 4 credits in a traditional secondaryschool system to complete (540 hours/135 hours = 4).
90 minute block x 90 days = 8100 minutes or 135 hours
Or
45 minute periods x 180 days = 8100 minutes or 135 hours
It takes a minimum of 20 credits/units in a traditional post-secondary system to complete depending how units areallocated (e.g., if a unit = 27 hours of instruction/lab, then 540hours/27 hours = 20 units).

How is the Auto Upkeep commonly
delivered?
Most often offered as a 1 credit course, but alsoused by some school districts as a creditcourse.
Some community colleges and universities use itas a first auto course or as an evening adult edcourse.
Auto Upkeep was designed to have a balancebetween in-class and hands-on instruction.
Commonly two days a week are in-class andthree days a week are in the automotive lab.

What will each student know and be able to do
at the completion of Auto Upkeep?
Over 150 competencies are assessed.
Over 50% of MLR Tasks are addressed. In general, students become confident,
empowered, consumers and users of the
automobile.
