Abstract: In this curriculum guide, courses in a three-phase community college program for training import automobile technicians are provided. Following an introducation to the guide, the background of the development of the program, the program, the instruction, support for instruction, and the import automobile industry are discussed. Sample options for students during five semesters of study are listed. The three phases of the program are: I. General Automotive Background, II. Entry Level Preparation for the Import Automobile Industry, and III, Continued Training with On-the-job Experience. The 19-subjects entry level class, which is one semester in length, is designed to provide necessary background for a student to be employed as a trainee in an import automobile shop. Upon completion of the entry level class, the trainee then enrolls in the 11 advanced classes, covering three semesters, which provide a controlled learning situation of a class associated with hands-on-training. Appendixes give lists of automotive test equipment and tools and equipment, and provide a form announcing the program at East Los Angeles College, an applicant information form, a Draft of Flyer for the Import Automobile Distributors to Present to Their Dealers, a Student Data Sheet, and Instructor's Evaluation Form, and A Dealer Visitation Report and Evaluation Form. A Management Plan, Performance Requirements, Narrative Description, Diagrams, Bibliography, and sample certificate to be awarded to the traininee are included, together with a sample of a Cooperative Education Agreement among college, employer, and student.
