For more information, visit www.careertech.org/career-clusters/ CAREER OPPORTUNITIES There are currently over 200 million motor vehicles on America’s roads traveling over two and a half trillion miles each year. Thousands of these vehicles are involved in collisions each day. When accidents happen, we turn to Collision Repair technicians. Some CRT students find jobs as apprentices, repair technicians, estimators, managers, paint technicians, insurance adjustors, and sales reps. The field of Collision Repair Technology (CRT) is about more than sheet metal replacement and finishing. Collision Repair is experiencing tremendous technological change with modern unibody vehicles, on-board computers, power conveniences, air bags, and a variety of new plastic components. The Collision Repair technician must develop expertise in several areas to get today’s vehicles back on the road… accurate body sectioning, welding, laser measuring, and the use of hydraulic pulling equipment. Each damaged vehicle is unique, providing the technician the rewards that come with using problem solving and artistry. PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS •A set of hand tools is required.
