Overview

Program Description

You will learn to weld and use trade tools and how to work with and shape sheet metal. You will also learn the techniques required to realign and straighten the bodies and frames of cars. The Collision Repair and Refinishing program at Red River College Polytechnic also teaches proper methods of patching, finishing, and preparing a panel for paint application.

You will learn how to perform the necessary repairs and replacements to restore vehicles to their pre-damaged condition, and how to determine how much and what kind of work is needed for each vehicle.

Safety in the work environment is stressed.

Environmentally friendly high-volume and low-pressure spray equipment is used along with Low V.O.C. refinishing products.

Prior to starting the program, you will be invited to attend a program overview information session. You will also be invited to participate in a math and reading skills diagnostic testing session that will advise you of your program readiness.
