Ford ASSET Program Uses New Methodologies and Technologies

 

Cosumnes River College, Riverside College, Cuyamaca College, Evergreen Community College and Cerritos College have partnered with the Ford Motor Company to provide technical and vocation training through the ASSET program (Automotive Student Service Educational Training).

Prior to entry into the ASSET program, Consumnes River requires students to take English and Math assessment tests. Test scores do not prevent a student from entering the program, but are used to identify and, if necessary, improve the skill levels of a student so that success and completion rates can remain high.

Curriculum includes not only lecture and lab time, but also computer based training (CBT) and computer simulations that provide “symptoms” that must be solved by the students.
