Once inside, most establishments proudly display the ASE certificates earned by their technicians in their office or waiting room. Finally, the technicians may be wearing an ASE patch on the shoulder of their uniform or a pin above their nameplate. All ASE-Certified professionals are proud of their achievement and are more than willing to show you their credentials. ASE has years of experience helping the automotive industry verify the skills and knowledge of the technicians working at dealerships, independent repair shops, collision shops, franchises, fleets, and more.

It is called the Blue Seal of Excellence Recognition Program. The Program's emphasis is to identify establishments having at least 75% of their staff be ASE-Certified professionals.
