SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA – Shop-Ware continues to lead the industry with free auto shop management software for schools who train the next generation of technicians. Its staff has teamed up with the ASE Education Foundation to arm future techs with the digital tools they need.

To date, Shop-Ware has provided more than 70 schools with access to its platform. ASE-accredited schools are welcome to subscribe to this free offering, including the full feature set of the shop management system. As a result, Shop-Ware can get any school started quickly with its in-product learning tools and training guides.

“Writing a repair order is a task and a standard in the accreditation process. Students will find it very difficult to transition from education to the industry if they are not prepared,” said George Arrants, Vice President of the ASE Education Foundation. “Having a shop management system in the classroom creates an opportunity to bridge that gap.”

Experts from Shop-Ware recently showed more than 100 instructors to highlight the value of shop management software in today’s shop. Above all, Sales Manager Monique Mondragon focused on how free auto shop management software:

» Plays a critical role in a shop’s overall business plan

» Improves efficiency and internal communications between shop staff

» Can make employees more productive and achieve higher gross profits

» Improves communications and relationships with shop customers

Keeping up with the industry with free auto shop management software

In her demonstration, Monique reinforced how the driving experience has gone digital, making the repair process more complex. While many shops remain mired in old paper-based processes, technology quickly evolves.

By training on a modern system, techs learn to showcase their problem-solving talents and present them in a clear and visual way. As a result, they start their careers by demonstrating their skills to their coworkers and managers – and the value they offer to customers.

When using Shop-Ware, students can gain insights into how shops harness cutting-edge tools during repairs. Then, they can build their confidence for workplaces that stay current with the latest technology.

To get started, schools just need a six-digit ID ASE accreditation program code and one minute to fill out this form. For more details, email our support team.
