Automotive mechanics work on cars and light trucks. Their responsibilities include maintaining, inspecting and repairing these vehicles. The majority of mechanics hold associate's degrees or certificates in automotive technology. These programs combine classroom work with real-world experience. Between formal schooling and on-the-job training, it can take up to 5 years to become fully qualified, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Additionally, innovations such as hybrid engines and GPS technologies mean that mechanics must update their skills constantly.
