Auto mechanic classes in Colorado
47 auto mechanic programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free
9 schools offer these automotive programs, and Colorado has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.
Automotive service technicians and mechanics inspect, maintain and repair cars and light trucks. Most complete a program in automotive service technology that leads to a certificate or an associate's degree, and employers may require or prefer certification.1 Federal rules require anyone paid to repair or service a car's air conditioning to be trained and certified by an EPA-approved program, which ends with a test.2
In Colorado, 42 of the 47 programs take students without a high school diploma and 5 ask for a diploma or equivalent.
By kind, the 47 programs here are automotive technician (41 programs), single-system course (5 programs) and automotive technician (associate degree, 1 program).

Where the Colorado automotive program numbers come from
Which Colorado automotive programs are on this list?
These are the automotive programs Colorado approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).10 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what Colorado offers.
How the prices and results of Colorado automotive programs are measured
Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.
How reliable are the Colorado figures?
The US Department of Labor's own results site lists Colorado among the states with "known data quality concerns".11 The figures here are shown as the state reported them; check them with the school before you enroll.
