Automotive Training Institute Commits $25,000 in Support of AMI

Automotive Training Institute (ATI) has joined the Automotive Management Institute’s (AMI’s) resource development effort EXCEL, with a commitment of $25,000. The commitment to AMI will be combined with other leadership contributions to continue AMI’s mission of providing and promoting practical business management education tailored to the automotive service and collision repair industry.

ATI is a recognized leader in management training. Founded in 1974 by Chris” Chubby” Frederick, the company is located in Savage, Md. and provides workshops, training, and coaching for the automotive service industry. ATI has over 80 associates spread all over the U.S and Canada coaching thousands of shop owners.

“My goal is to respond to our clients' request to AMI-approve our entire Re-Engineering program which would give our clients over 200 AMI credits at the completion of our program,” said Frederick, an AMI- approved instructor since 1999.

AMI Chairman George Witt, AAM, owner of George Witt Service, Inc., Lincoln, Neb., stated, “As president of Automotive Training Institute, Chris has demonstrated his dedication to AMI and the automotive industry through his financial commitment and his eagerness to share his vast knowledge with shop owners and managers across the country.”

“We extend our greatest appreciation to Chris for his tremendous support and commitment to the Institute,” said AMI Executive Director Toni Slaton, AAM.

AMI was established to answer the demand for continuing education tailored specifically for the business needs of the automotive service industry. The Institute offers the Accredited Automotive Manager (AAM) designation, the first business management accreditation exclusively for the automotive service professional. To date, AMI programs have attracted more than 160,000 enrollments throughout North America.
