The ASRW Industry Forum will feature two concurrent one-hour sessions: "Service Information – Vital to Keeping Cars in Your Bay" for the mechanical industry and "Trends in Collision Repair: A Futurist Discussion" for collision repair professionals, followed by a 30-minute networking break. Two additional concurrent sessions will follow: "The Future of Training Automotive Technicians" for the mechanical industry and "The Changing Climate of Insurance Agreements" for collision repairers. The forum will conclude with an hour-long reception mixer.

"We identified the most relevant topics that have a direct impact on business for this year’s ASRW Industry Forum," says Ron Pyle, ASA president. "This compelling program and the lively discussion it generates is another key differentiator that sets ASRW apart from other events."
