Belle Tire Offers Advanced Training for Technicians

Allen Park, Mich. (PRWEB) November 6, 2009 -- Belle Tire, the number one tire retailer in Michigan, continues to invest in the state and its local communities by offering advanced training to its current technicians and providing them with a new and exciting career opportunity as a certified technician.
 This training program, unlike any other offered by retailers in the area, is being conducted by Master Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) Technician Larry Bluford. Mr. Bluford is highly qualified with over 30 years of experience in automotive service. The 90 day training program is made up of five students whom are chosen based on their aptitude and motivation for a mechanical career. The students are selected by Mr. Bluford from over 800 Belle Tire service employees.
The training classes are conducted at The Belle Tire Auto Tech Development Center, located at the Belle Tire Headquarters and Distribution Center in Allen Park. Classes are conducted five days a week and combine a rigorous curriculum of classroom training, testing and hands on training.
To provide quality hands on training to the students, Belle Tire is offering consumers a discount of up to 50% off the services performed on their vehicles at the Belle Tire Auto Tech Development Center in Allen Park during training. Belle Tire curriculum includes, but is not limited to, training in the following areas; Wheel Alignment and Balancing, Brake Systems, Steering & Suspension, Air Conditioning, Batteries, Starters and Alternators, Shocks and Struts, and Cooling Systems. To ensure every job is done to Belle Tire standards, Mr. Bluford oversees all repairs. In the past, city employees from Melvindale and Allen Park took advantage of the huge discounts by bringing their personal vehicles in to the Auto Tech Development Center for service. Most repairs take one day and require an appointment.
"Belle Tire has been in business for over 85 years and is invested in Michigan. By offering advanced training to our current employees, it gives them an opportunity at a solid career foundation and advanced career opportunities, it also provides consumers with a way to save even more on auto service," said Jeff Kruse, Vice President of Retail Operations at Belle Tire.
Upon completion of training and graduation, Belle Tire provides each graduating student with a mechanics tools set valued at over $8000, and each graduate is immediately placed at a Belle Tire retail location to begin their new careers. Belle Tire currently employs 289 technicians who have received their ASE Certification, 87 of whom are ASE Certified Master Technicians.
This new training program is just another way Belle Tire continues to strive for excellence and provides customers with an exceptional level of service beyond compare, additional value for those taking advantage of the up to 50% off discounts at the Auto Tech Development Center and advances the careers for ambition young men and women.
The Belle Tire Auto Tech Development Center is located at 1000 Enterprise Drive and is open five days a week, Monday through Friday, 8am—5pm, and can be reached at 313-271-9400 ext. 246.
