The Stark State College comprehensive accelerated certificate of completion program (CACCP) is a one-year program that contains only the automotive courses listed in the two-year comprehensive automotive program.

The curriculum is designed to be an intensive one-year education in the service and repair of today’s automobiles. As in the comprehensive automotive program, emphasis is placed on the three major domestic manufacturers (General Motors, Ford and Daimler Chrysler) and some
foreign vehicles (Toyota, Honda, Isuzu, and Mazda, etc.).

The CACCP curriculum is a blend of classroom theory and hands-on lab assignments that follow NATEF guidelines. This allows the student to pursue ASE certification.

Students successfully completing the CACCP curriculum will receive a comprehensive accelerated certificate of completion from Stark State College.

Students desiring to obtain an associate degree in applied science in automotive technology can chose to add the academic courses that are listed in the two-year comprehensive automotive program.
