Biodiesel Curriculum for Techs Receives National Accreditation
Te National Automotive Technician Education Foundation (NATEF)
awarded Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) accreditation to curriculum to educate technicians on the performance of biodiesel blends and how they affect engines. Schools can now officially use the biodiesel program, developed by the National Biodiesel Board (NBB), as core curriculum for diesel technicians. NBB said biodiesel enhances energy security, supports 39,000 American jobs
and reduces carbon emissions by 80 percent. It is listed in the federal Renewable Fuels Programs as the only commercially available, EPA-certified “advanced biofuel.” NBB developed the training program in 2008 to advise customers and technicians on the true impacts of using biodiesel and how it reduces emissions as well as dependence on foreign oil. Te Iowa Biodiesel Board was an early partner in implementing the
curriculum to more than 1,000 students at community colleges across the state. NBB said 74 percent of students report that they now are “fairly knowledgeable” or “very knowledgeable” about biodiesel, compared to 33 percent who previously responded the same.
