Commitment to Training Helps Techs Stay Current
Ever feel a bit overwhelmed by how fast automotive technology is moving? It’s a challenge to keep up and staying current requires a lifetime of learning.
There are many resources to help. Mitchell 1 is proud to be a sponsor of the “Commitment to Training” program hosted by Automechanika Chicago and Motor Age. Throughout 2016 they are offering a number of valuable training opportunities for professional automotive technicians. Some are offered in person and some are online webinars, but all of them are FREE.
In addition to training events, they also have established training groups for networking and a ton of great resources to help techs stay on top of the latest trends.
Check out all the details on the Commitment to Training website, and here are a few that are coming up fast in May:
