OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — The Coordinating Committee For Automotive Repair (CCAR) announces that 10 new schools registered in November to utilize CCAR’s S/P2 e-learning program that covers Safety and Pollution Prevention for their automotive training programs. The new schools are:
• Anoka High School, Anoka, Minn.
• Bridgeport High School, Bridgeport, Texas
• Camden High School, Camden, N.J.
• Centerline High School, Centerline, Mich.
• Champlin High School, Champlin, Minn.
• Levelland High School, Levelland, Texas
• Montreal L'Ecole D'Automobiles (School of Automobiles), Montreal, Quebec
• Osceola High School, Kissimmee, Fla.
• South Dade Adult Education Center, Leisure City, Fla.
• Sumner High School, Sumner, Wash. More than 2,000 schools across the U.S. have access to the S/P2 courseware, which CCAR offers free of charge to automotive training programs.
“I am very grateful that CCAR allows schools like ours participate in the program at no cost,” said Bruce Duncan, auto technology instructor at Gaithersburg High School, Gaithersburg, Md., which began using S/P2last summer. “The majority of our students could not afford to participate otherwise, and those students who go on to careers in the auto repair industry will certainly be safer and better-informed workers. That’s not only better for them but for the industry as well!” S/P2 was designed in keeping with U.S. EPA and OSHA standards, which require shop personnel and students to be trained at least annually on safety and environmental regulations. For businesses, S/P2is available for a $299 annual subscription per facility for an unlimited amount of training during the 12 months.
