Will grow School Assist as a solution for both schools and industry partners with joint marketing and product development
Leesburg, Va.—The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), the ASE Education Foundation and WrenchWay, have partnered to promote School Assist. School Assist connects vehicle service employers and schools in finding classroom resources and creating a workforce pipeline for the transportation industry.
WrenchWay, an online community dedicated to promoting and improving technician careers, created School Assist to make it easier for high schools and post-secondary schools to work with the industry. Schools can use WrenchWay to make requests for guest speakers, shop tours, tool donations, internships and more.
Shops, dealerships and others can scroll through the requests, connect with schools and start a relationship that will build their future workforce from students enrolled in these programs. School Assist also allows industry members to post available resources for educators, enabling schools to reach out on the platform and collaborate on opportunities that will benefit students and potential employers.
The School Assist platform currently has over 1,100 participating schools across the country. Through this partnership, the ASE Education Foundation will invite their 2,000 ASE accredited training programs to join the platform for free.
Partnership Offers Lower Cost Option
As part of this ASE partnership, a new lower cost option will be available to shops, dealerships and other industry partners who want to connect with schools through School Assist, but do not need the full WrenchWay Top Shop program.
ASE and WrenchWay will work together to continue growing School Assist as the go-to solution for both schools and industry partners. This includes joint marketing efforts and collaborative product development.
