The GM STC courses are modular courses. The information contained in each modularized class is an integral part of one of the courses in the comprehensive automotive program. These courses can be taken as electives by students enrolled in the comprehensive automotive program. Students who elect to take the GM STC modular courses without taking the comprehensive classes can receive credit for selected classes within the comprehensive automotive program upon completion of all of the modules related to a given class.

The GM STC modular courses are designed for students who are seeking a career as General Motors service technicians. The curriculum is produced as a joint effort between Stark State College and General Motors. The curriculum includes: computer based training, interactive distance learning, classroom theory, and hands-on lab assignments.

Upon completion of all of the GM STC modular courses, the student will achieve recognition as a GM World Class Technician.
