The Automotive Trainer plays a vital role in the Vocational Education Program within the Education Department at Montana State Prison, a multi- classification institution for adult males. In this position, you will deliver hands-on and classroom instruction that prepares participants for entry-level employment in automotive technology. Training covers engines, power trains, electrical systems, electronics, brakes, suspension, heating and air conditioning, tool usage, and shop safety. Using current NATEF standards, you will develop curriculum, demonstrations, and task-based exercises while maintaining accurate records, supervising shop activity, and ensuring adherence to institutional policies. Your instruction also supports the Automotive Excellence Student Certification program and provides consistent staffing for the Motor Vehicle Maintenance (MVM) Shop.

In addition to teaching, you will manage classroom and lab environments, present learning materials with basic computer tools, and offer short clinics to support workforce productivity.

This role offers a meaningful opportunity to influence skill growth, encourage positive development, and prepare individuals for success beyond the facility.
