TOPDON US has signed on as a sponsor of the ASE Education Foundation, reinforcing its efforts to support education and training for the next generation of automotive professionals.
“ASE offers one of the most respected certifications an automotive repair professional can earn,” said Chad Schnitz, vice president of TOPDON. “It is both a benchmark for the automotive workforce and a representative of each technician’s dedication to their automotive craft. The demand for qualified technicians has never been higher and we’re proud to sponsor the ASE Education Foundation and share in their effort to ensure a higher standard of quality across the automotive industry.”
The yearlong sponsorship, finalized in August, will give the company a chance to share technical information with accredited schools, participate in live webinars, and engage with instructors and students across the country.
TOPDON has already contributed more than $300,000 in tools and financial support to education and training programs through its TOP-UP Academic Initiative.
“We are thrilled to have TOPDON’s support as we seek to fulfill our mission to prepare the next generation of automotive professionals,” added Mike Coley, ASE president. “TOPDON continues to demonstrate its commitment to developing industry-leading automotive tools and their team has also been actively training and educating technicians across the country. This partnership reinforces our shared commitment to advancing excellence, innovation and career opportunities in automotive service.”
