I-CAR is collaborating with the
Assured Performance Network in the
development of the Road to Gold
program, a new planned approach to
achieving the I-CAR Gold Class
Professionals designation for their
network of more than 3,000 collision
repair shops.
Organizations that enroll in the Road
to Gold™ program commit to earning the
I-CAR Gold Class Professionals®
business designation, which is a
requirement for earning the Assured
Performance Certification. The Gold
Class
designation is the highest training
recognition available to businesses in
the collision repair industry. Other
businesses
that have been recognized as Gold Class
have reported less rework, retained
customer satisfaction, and improved
overall operational
efficiencies.
“For our Assured Performance
Certification, the I-CAR Gold Class
Professionals® designation is essential
to ensuring
the shop has the training that is in
accordance with industry repair
standards.” Scott Biggs, CEO of Assured
Performance, explained. “With this new
Road to Gold™ program, our members can
enroll with a clear objective –Gold
Class status, and get a plan to achieve
and maintain it.”
“I-CAR commends Assured
Performance Network for its commitment
to training. The inherit value
delivered through
the I-CAR® Professional Development
Program™ and the Gold Class designation
will provide Assured Performance
Network member shops with the training
needed to perform safe repairs and
retain vehicle integrity post-repair,”
said
Jeff Peevy, I-CAR Senior Director of
Field Operations and Segment
Development.
