Ford ACE Highlights: Women in the Auto-Industry

​You may know automotive technicians are a male-dominated industry. But did you know by how much? According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2018, women only account for about 2% of all auto mechanics.

For International Women’s Day, Knowledge Anywhere’s partner New Ford Tech wants to highlight the accomplishments of women in the auto industry, through an interview with a female mechanic in their ACE program. If you’d like to hear more about her story, as well as women in the auto-workplace, you can join the New Ford Tech team for their live broadcast on Monday March 8th at 4 pm EST. Sign up here.

At the time, Courtney was an Automotive Service Technology student of Tulsa Technology Center and had an Internship at Riverside Ford of Tulsa.
