The award, sponsored by Cengage Learning, recognizes the automotive technician earning the highest composite score on the ASE certification exams, the industry standard for automotive service professionals.

We are honored to be presenting him with this award and look forward to seeing all the great things he has yet to accomplish in his career."

"Obtaining an ASE certification is all about showing your community that you care," said Tuholski. "By studying for my exams and gaining this ASE certification, my education not only benefits my career, but also the lives of my local community. They can come to me and have the peace of mind to know that their vehicles will be repaired the right way. A great technician can make an honest living just by working smarter."

Tuholski has been working as an automotive technician for 24 years, and for the past 20 of those years he has been a Master/Lead Technician at Milex Auto Service of Tucson, AZ.
