METRO Bus Mechanics Apprenticeship

With METRO’s apprenticeship program, you get trained to be a bus mechanic. Given that they are transitioning into buying only zero emissions buses by 2030, this program provides training with diesel motor and electric buses.

The training curriculum lasts 10 months and includes extensive classroom coursework, simulation training, and even help to obtain a commercial driver license. Participants then move into a mentorship program. After advancing to B mechanic status, they will receive a complete set of tools valued at more than $20,000.
