I-CAR Introduces WebEx Internet Training
I-CAR has introduced WebEx Internet training, a new training delivery method available to the collision industry. WebEx, an online meeting service that integrates voice, video, and data sharing, offers an interactive learning environment. This, in combination with the I-CAR collision repair training curriculum, will complement live instructor-led training and allow collision industry professionals across North America to be trained and work towards fulfilling the I-CAR Vision that all people in the collision industry have the necessary technical knowledge and skills relevant to their positions to achieve a complete and safe repair.I-CAR Director of Business Development and North American Operations Rick Tuuri stated, “I-CAR is pleased to provide this additional support for our existing instructors across North America. Currently, it’s not uncommon for an instructor to have to travel to teach I-CAR programs, sometimes at no small expense of personal time, money, or both. With this technology, we will be able to deliver some programs with an instructor in a convenient location and leverage the capabilities of the Internet rather than placing additional demands on our instructors while also increasing the availability of I-CAR training.”
I-CAR Manager of Tech Centre Operations Lori Barrington said, “The main delivery of training for I-CAR is, and will continue to be traditional live classroom delivery. However, using WebEx as an additional delivery option vastly increases our ability to provide training to areas throughout North America. I-CAR live training delivered via WebEx will offer the same technical content and information as found in the traditional class setting. The only difference is that the instructor is not in the same location as the student, but instead is in a virtual classroom environment, communicating in real-time via the Internet and telephone.”
Visit the WebEx Internet Training section of the I-CAR website and utilize a search function to find a WebEx training program near you. Additional information about WebEx training, which I-CAR training programs are currently available in this format, and how to become a host are available online or through contacting your I CAR regional manager at 800.422.7456.
