A panel of automotive service experts will discuss Changing the Culture in Aftermarket Training: Perspective of the Independent Repairer on Tuesday, May 8, at the Global Automotive Aftermarket Symposium (GAAS) held at the Hyatt Regency OHare, Chicago, Ill.
Moderated by Ron Pyle, president, Automotive Service Association, the panel will discuss improvements and measures that can foster better
service training and educational opportunities for technicians.
Speaking from the unique viewpoint of seasoned industry professionals, panelists include:
Douglas Kirchdorfer, Downing Street Garage;
