Passed another ASE

I have been ASE certified since 1974 when they first started. It was called NIASE back then. I have been Master Certified since 1980. I now own my own shop and I take me and my techs being certified very seriously. I agree it isn't a perfect way to prove what you know, but then what would be? You can't really do a written test and a hands on test for everyone. Then it would be like a AAA Troubleshooting Contest!
