Terms of Use

By using ASE Prep you agree to these terms. They are intentionally short and plain.

What this site is

ASE Prep is a free, independent, informational resource that maps the ASE (National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence) certification family. It is operated by Urban Algorithm LLC. It is not a training course, an exam, or a certification body, and it does not grant, endorse, or administer any credential.

Not professional or career advice

The matrix, tools, and guides help you reason about a decision; they are not professional, legal, financial, or career advice, and they are not a substitute for the official requirements published by ASE. The which-test wizard's output is a starting point, not a guarantee that you will qualify for, pass, or benefit from any certification. Verify anything that matters against the official source before you act on it.

Not affiliated with or endorsed by ASE

ASE Prep is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ASE. Certification and organization names are the marks of their respective owners and are used only descriptively to identify the exams discussed.

Accuracy and changes

We compile fees, task-list areas, and other facts carefully and date each one to its source, but ASE changes its prices and rules, and figures marked pending are not yet verified. We make no warranty that the information is complete, current, or error-free, and we are not liable for decisions made in reliance on it. If you find an error, please tell us and we will fix it.

Acceptable use

Use the site for your own certification decision. Do not scrape it at a scale that disrupts service, misrepresent it as an official ASE property, or reuse its compiled data in a way that removes the sourcing and dating that make it trustworthy.
