Demonstrate shop practices. Learners will practice vehicle maintenance on live customers vehicles. Emphasis on quality control of repairs, time management, techniques of customer communication (verbal and written), estimate planning, and meeting deadlines. Focus will be on first semester content.
Demonstrate shop practices. Learners will practice vehicle diagnosis and repairs on live customers vehicles. Emphasis on quality control of repairs, time management, techniques of customer communication (verbal and written), estimate planning, and meeting deadlines. Focus will be on third semester content.
Describe the automotive service facility. Safety, the use of basic hand and power tools, and hoist training helps the prospective automobile technician work safely and efficiently.
This Basic Motorcycle Rider course consists of classroom and range instruction designed for beginning riders and was developed by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF). The Basic Rider Course covers preparing to ride, turning, shifting and braking, street strategies, special situations, increasing riding skills, maintenance and insurance. Instructors are certified by the MSF and Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT). It is taught off-street, out of traffic, and motorcycles and helmets are provided. In addition there is a 5 hour ECourse that must be completed within 30 days prior to class(fees for ECourse are included in the overall class price).
This Basic Motorcycle Rider 2 course consists of classroom and range instruction designed for riders with their Wisconsin Motorcycle Instruction Permit who are either returning to riding or are seeking a refresher course to practice and/or seeking their motorcycle license or endorsement (already licensed or endorsed riders may also participate). Any person over the age of 16 may enroll in this course. The student must already possess basic riding skills such as starting out, stopping, and turning. Students must bring their own 2 wheel motorcycle which may be a manual or automatic. Students must provide proof of registration and insurance for the motorcycle they will be using. In addition there is a 4 hour ECourse that must be completed within 30 days prior to class(fees for ECourse are included in the overall class price) The in-person portion consists of eight range exercises, including a screening exercise to verify participants have sufficient skill to continue. This course may also be used to waive the road test when applying for the Wisconsin Motorcycle license, as long as the student also completes the E-Course.
Perform vehicle maintenance and repair. Focus will be on thread repair, oil change, tire rotations, and TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitor System) relearn procedures.
