We have decided that to be tech certified you must work in the repair feild and be able to show a proven track record of good advice at this site. I know that there are many techs out there who know less than some hobbiests but we need to have some guide lines. We want to make sure that a certified memeber is going to give out advice that can be trusted.

..good to know..a month or two ago I asked this question but to a moderator just out of curiosity and he was very instrumental in helping apply the label to me...I didn't seek it out but was very gracious for his effort to have it applied to me.......only question I could add is how do you prove you work in the field?? cause I know one or two that have the title that don't..in my case it'd of been hard to fudge that one cause the mod that got it for me knows me personally

Well you guys know the old saying "Not who you know but who you B&%W". Just kidding. If someone is actually certified in the mechanical field i welcome their knowledge. It can make life easier.

I don't need an internet title to make myself feel good about myself...and for that matter all the ones hanging on the wall at work....the only thing that really matters at all to me is at the end of the day week or month have I resolved.repaired the customers complaint..cause the pieces of paper on the wall don't do that....I'll tell you what a highly decorated mercedes master guild tech = highest honor for a mercedes tech..told me......he said while working at a independent repair shop for meager pay..look what all those pieces of paper and awards got me!!.........needless to say I understood what he meant.....so whether or not your name carries a title above it makes you no better or worse than one who has one
