About

The goal of the Automotive Technology department is to train the next generation of automotive technicians in bumper-to-bumper repair. Our college has partnerships with General Motors (GM ASEP) and Ford Motor Company (Ford ASSET) to offer cohort-based brand specific technician training. We also have a General Technician program that includes a broader look into several import brands. They include Subaru (Subaru U), Nissan (Nissan Technician Training Academy), Stellantis (Mopar CAP), Audi (Audi Education Partnership), and now Mercedes-Benz (MB Campus). We partner with the Greater Los Angeles Motor Car dealers Association (GLANCDA) locally. All program options prepare students for the workforce by providing classroom and hands-on instruction as well as an opportunity for paid on-the-job training.

Cerritos College offers dual enrollment with Artesia High School and Downey High School. With dual enrollment, high school students can take college classes where they receive both college units and high school credit.

The Advanced Transportation and Logistics program (ATL) was created as a means for keeping California competitive as a national leader in advanced transportation and energy technologies. Cerritos College is the host site for Advanced Transportation and Logistics.
