Kaskaskia College

Automotive Technology Career Exploration For Ages 13–18 

Ever wondered what’s happening under the hood when a car starts—or doesn’t? In this hands-on automotive class, you won’t just learn about cars, you’ll work on them. You’ll explore real engines, identify key parts, and finally understand how everything connects to make a vehicle run. We’ll get into the shop, lift cars safely, and break down real-world problems like dead batteries, flat tires, and no-start issues so you know what’s really going on. If you like hands-on work, problem-solving, or want real skills that matter, this class is your chance to jump in and get started.  Lunch will be provided. 

 Each student will receive safety glasses, work gloves, and a pocket screwdriver to use during class and take home afterward.
