STANDARD 5 - STUDENT SERVICES
SYSTEMATIC PRE-ADMISSION TESTING, INTERVIEWS, COUNSELING
SERVICES, PLACEMENT, AND FOLLOW-UP PROCEDURES SHOULD BE USED.
Standard 5.1 - Pretesting
A formal pretesting program should be used to assess a student's abilities in reading,
mathematics, and mechanical aptitude to evaluate and assure the student a reasonable probability
of success as a collision repair and refinish technician. Testing procedures and how the test
results will be used (e.g., placement, assessment of student's developmental needs, etc.) should
be stated in program explanatory material, and justification for all requirements should be
available.
Standard 5.2 - Pre-admission Interviews
Prior to program admission, a student should be interviewed and approved for admission.
Standard 5.3 - Student Records
Permanent records of all students, former and current, should be available, preferably in one
central location, and kept confidential.
Standard 5.4 - Placement
A systematic student placement system should be used to assist program graduates to obtain
employment in the collision repair and refinish industry.
Standard 5.5 - Follow-up
A follow-up system should be used to determine students' employment location and for feedback
regarding the efficiency, effectiveness, and appropriateness of training. The follow-up procedure
should be designed to assure feedback regarding needed additions to or deletions from the
training curriculum, program, and tools and equipment. Follow-up of graduates employed
outside the collision repair and refinish industry should indicate reasons for non-collision repair
and refinish employment. When applicable, this information should be used to modify the
training quality and/or content.
Standard 5.6 - Legal Requirements
The training program should meet all applicable local, state, and federal requirements.
