Repair Industry: Ongoing Training (New)
All current Registered Emissions Repair Technicians are required to attend one four-hour ongoing training module by March of each year to maintain their registration in the Massachusetts Vehicle Check Program. Ongoing training modules will be presented quarterly at four Motorist Assistance Centers (MACs) located throughout the Commonwealth and will cost $150.
The first Registered Emissions Repair Technician ongoing training module will focus on Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). Since the Massachusetts Vehicle Check Program began, more than 28,000 vehicles have failed the on-board diagnostics (OBD) inspection with at least one EGR DTC. This training module will concentrate on effective diagnostics and repair of vehicles that have failed their emission inspection with EGR DTC problems.
To apply to take the EGR training module, please print and send in this Training Application, along with payment to Parsons. Maps and directions will be provided upon request.
