Automotive impact

As automotive technologies continue to progress and are more reliant on computers, today’s automotive service technicians are more skilled than ever.

More sophisticated equipment repair is required of technicians on top of the classical mechanical diagnoses and repair.

Inside and automotive bay in the Clayton Carroll Automotive Centre.Opened in 2002, the 70,000 square foot Clayton Carroll Automotive Centre on SAIT’s main campus creates an atmosphere nearly identical to what you’ll see in the workforce, giving you an immersive learning experience like no other.

The building includes 35,000 square feet dedicated to hands-on training in three automotive bays with the capacity to house 60 training vehicles.

The space has technology-focused classrooms and five labs, all with new and emerging technologies, including a tune-up/electrical lab, first- and second-year apprenticeship labs, the General Motors Automotive Service Educational Program (ASEP) lab, and the Ford Automotive Student Service Educational Training (ASSET) lab.

In the spring of 2023, RBC announced an $850,000 investment to support the delivery of a greener future. Thanks to this generous donation, the Clayton Carroll Automotive Centre labs will soon incorporate electric vehicle readiness training and youth skills programming.
