FAQs

Q: Can Fleet technicians attend GM STC classes at the GM Training Centers?

A: Yes, if space is available and they have completed the required CBT/WBT and IDL portions of the course for which they want to attend. For example, if a technician wanted to attend the ABS Brakes Hands-On Course at the training center, the technician would be required to first successfully complete the CBT/WBT and the IDL, ABS Brakes courses; then the Fleet technician would be eligible to attend the class at the training center.
