Minnesota Careers in Automotive Repair and Service (MNCARS) has launched CarCareers.org as a resource for automotive career information.

“CarCareers.org will help parents, teachers, influencers and students overcome misperceptions about the automotive industry and attract the qualified job candidates employers desperately need,” said Judell Anderson, executive director of the Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of Minnesota, founder and platinum sponsor of MNCARS. “With hundreds of jobs waiting for skilled employees, the time is now to attract new professionals to our technology-driven field.”

The website’s sections include information such as:

– Reasons to pursue an automotive career;

– Facts to counter common misperceptions about the industry;

– Career paths;

– And success spotlights and a depiction of the 21st century automotive service and collision shop.

MNCARS goal is that those who visit the website will gain a better understanding of the advantages a two-year automotive program offers.

Over the next two years, MNCARS will also reach host events at schools and community locations for students to get exposure to car career jobs, as well as develop and promote media stories featuring local automotive professionals and their stories.

A digital “toolkit” for counselors and teachers on automotive careers is also available.
