AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE TECHNICIAN
Anyone whose car or light truck has broken down knows the importance of the service technician’s job. Continued advancements in technology have created and redefined the role of the automotive technician. Although hand skills remain important, physical work is no longer the major aspect of automotive servicing. Today, the emphasis is on diagnostics, a process that requires an ability to think through problems in the abstract. The ability to diagnose the source of the problem quickly and accurately, one of the mechanic’s most valuable skills, requires good reasoning ability and a thorough knowledge of automobiles. In fact, many mechanics consider diagnosing “hard to find” troubles one of their most challenging and satisfying duties.

EDMONTON MOTOR DEALER ASSOCIATION HISTORY
The first records of the EMDA are dated 1935, when a few car dealers met and collectively agreed to lobby for equalized freight rates for vehicles throughout Canada. In 1953, the Edmonton Motor Dealers’ Association was incorporated as a non-profit society. A charter was obtained under The Societies Act which continues with minor amendments to this day.
There are currently 82 franchised new vehicle dealerships in the Association located in Edmonton, Sherwood Park, and St. Albert.
The members directly employ in excess of 5000 Edmontonians. They support their communities through charitable involvement and contribute hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations and in-kind contributions.
