The deadline for submitting presentations is Friday, Feb. 10. Show management and the ASRW conference planning committee will review all proposals on originality of proposal, past speaker performance (or references), timeliness of topic, practical application of concepts or information and/or relevance to the collision repair and automotive service industries.
"The comprehensive training and education we are able to provide each year at ASRW is contingent upon the experts and industry leaders who are willing to lead a session, and we’re always proud of the caliber and quality of education we’re able to offer to the industry each year," said Bill Haas, vice president of education and training for ASA. "ASRW has a longstanding history of meeting the educational needs of the industry, and we look forward to receiving presentation ideas which will shape and guide this year’s program."
