Role Model Video: Automotive

Three dynamic women who have staked out successful careers in the automotive industry will inspire your female students to explore new career pathways. Female role models help get this career on the radar of women and girls because female students are able to see someone who looks like them on the job. The video reveals the personal experiences and insights of women working as a truck driver, an auto technician, and an apprentice auto mechanic.

This 24 minute video features profiles of three women who have embarked on careers in the automotive industry:

  • Linda Simon, a former hairdresser-turned-truck driver
  • Brenda McWilliams, an autobody technician
  • Danuta Wozniak, a third-year apprentice auto mechanic in a woman-owned shop

Tools of the Trade: Inside the Auto Technician's Toolbox

For many female (and male) students entering technical classes, their first challenge is tool identification. Women tend to have less informal tool-use experience outside of the classroom and may find it difficult to identify tools when they enter the trades. Many male students also don’t have these skills when they first enroll in trades programs. Demonstrating tool-use in the classroom is a great way to keep your students engaged! This 31-minute video, with accompanying instructor’s guide, opens the auto technician’s “toolbox” and introduces your students to the systems and tools that make both conventional and hybrid vehicles run.
