I’ve been an ASE certified Master Technician since 1997 but I feel it may be time to retire my certification.
Please don’t assume that I no longer have faith in the ASE certification system. I do, I just don’t feel that it’s necessary for me to have it anymore. In this video I talk about my reasoning and my opinions of the ASE certification program.
What are your thoughts about ASE?
