• Have you ever thought about a career as a Diesel Technician?
• Are you tired of working hard at a dead‑end J‑O‑B with no appreciation for your contributions?
• Do you want to feel proud of what you do and get on the path to a better and brighter future for you and your family?
• Did you take apart and put back together that pickup truck in your driveway? Does your compact have an exhaust pipe that is way too loud and a spoiler with enough down‑force to keep you driving under the speed limit?
• Are you working as a lube tech or other position in the maintenance shop, but your company does not provide education or tools?

Then this is your opportunity of a lifetime! Fleet Services by Cox Automotive, a national leader in mobile onsite fleet maintenance, is proud to announce open enrollment into our next Flee Tec Academy class.

Flee Tec Academy is a paid educational program that leads to a path to become one of our full‑time Diesel Technicians. It was established by us to help people get into the Diesel Maintenance field who otherwise might not be able to afford a year of formal technical schooling, the associated tuition debt, and buying all the necessary tools.

We pay you to go through our program, give you free education on fundamentals of diesel engines and how to fix trucks, and provide a set of hand tools with a toolbox. You will be the best Diesel Technician out there, and the tools stay with you.

Sounds too good to be true? No catch— we simply ask you to study hard for four weeks of full‑time schooling at our Academy Campus. Travel expenses are paid by us, along with hotel accommodations and a stipend for meals, plus a weekly paycheck. After the initial classroom phase, you will be paired with a Lead Technician in your market for further hands‑on training and offered an actual full‑time job with us.

From time to time you will be sent back for further classroom study to continue developing your skills. Upon successful completion of the full multi‑year program, you will be able to call yourself a Diesel Technician. Oh, and keep the tools.
