MECHANIC ALLIANCE FOUNDATION (Our sister company)
The organization offers training, resources, discounts, and education for
the betterment of the automobile repair industry.
Washington, Utah – Mechanic Alliance Foundation is pleased to announce it is
helping to build a better tomorrow for the automobile repair industry with its free
resources, education, discounts, and so much more.
Mechanic Alliance Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization consisting of
automotive mechanics and auto repair shops. At its core, the organization mentors
mechanics new to the industry, and those already working, with all they need to succeed
– including tips to develop technical skills and business strategies, discounts on tools,
guidance with job placements, and introducing them to an extensive, worldwide
network. What makes Mechanic Alliance Foundation unique is that all of this support is
provided completely free of charge.
“The auto repair industry is in dire straits, needing 400,000 mechanic positions filled
from 2020-2024, as per Ranken Technical College,” says co-founder of Mechanic
Alliance Foundation, Marvin Ray. “This enormous lack of skilled mechanics is driving
up repair costs, delays, and hurting those who need their cars fixed promptly. This void
is coming from mechanics retiring and business growth.”
“Add to that the face that today’s automobile is not like the automobile your parents
drove,” Marvin continues. “With over 100 ‘computers,’ some approaching 200, these
computers are not like your desktop computer or notebook. Instead, they are
programmable logical controllers complete embedded computers, based on
microcontrollers or microprocessors, and running operating systems. Essentially what
this means is that today’s mechanics are now, more than ever, automotive IT
technicians.”
“To help combat this issue, Mechanic Alliance Foundation provides training, resources,
and education for the betterment of those wanting to come into the automotive repair
industry, and those currently in the industry,” David Swensen, co-founder of the
platform concludes. “We are building a better tomorrow for the automobile repair
industry – today.”
