LJ Create Working with STEM AutoLab
AutoLab from LJ Create is a comprehensive automotive training solution that combines ASE-aligned curriculum, digital learning resources, assessments, simulations, and hands-on training equipment.
Designed for secondary and postsecondary automotive programs, AutoLab helps instructors teach both foundational theory and practical diagnostic skills while supporting the ASE Education Foundation task list requirements.
Students progress through a structured learning journey that blends classroom instruction with real-world troubleshooting and repair activities using automotive trainers, panel trainers, component rigs, and sectioned systems.
Automotive theory taught in a practical way… including:
AutoLab combines online digital learning resources with hands-on automotive training equipment to help students build the knowledge, confidence, and practical skills needed for modern automotive technology programs.
Automotive training equipment packages can be customized to meet your career and technical education (CTE) goals, workforce development needs, and lab requirements.
Sectioned Components
Sectioned trainers reveal the inner workings of automotive components, giving students a safe, accessible way to see how complex systems are constructed and how components interact.
Autotronics Panel Trainers
Computer-linked panel trainers simulate vehicle operations in a safe classroom environment. These systems support demonstration, investigation, diagnostics, and fault-finding activities.
Autotronics Boards
Desktop autotronics trainers provide a practical approach to theoretical learning, helping students develop diagnostic and fault-finding skills from the safety of the classroom.
System and Component Rigs
Fully functioning vehicle component rigs allow instructors to demonstrate diagnostic and maintenance techniques while giving students practical experience without requiring a complete vehicle.
Medium/Heavy Vehicle Rigs
Medium and heavy vehicle rigs provide hands-on training in diesel engines, drivetrain, brakes, suspension, steering, electrical systems, and HVAC.
EV & Hybrid Training
Prepare students for modern transportation technologies with EV and hybrid training resources covering high-voltage systems, charging infrastructure, hybrid powertrains, and related diagnostic skills.
Complete Lab Solutions
Tech-Labs and LJ Create can help schools design comprehensive automotive training labs that integrate curriculum, digital learning resources, hands-on training, and practical workstations into a solution that supports your program goals.
Whether you are building a new automotive technology program or expanding an existing lab, AutoLab equipment packages can be customized to support ASE-aligned instruction, CTE pathways, and workforce training needs.
