Philadelphia Collision Center Annually Invests $15,000 for Training

Philadelphia Collision Center Commits to Investing $15,000 Per Year for Training

The collision repair center sends its technical team to workshops and courses around the country sponsored by I-CAR, Assured Performance Network, Mercedes-Benz, and other private trade schools for the industry.

Alan’s Collision Center, an independent, single-owner Philadelphia auto body repair business, has committed to investing $15,000 annually in technician training to ensure excellence in collision repair services for customers.

The collision repair center sends its technical team to workshops and courses around the country sponsored by I-CAR, Assured Performance Network, Mercedes-Benz and other private trade schools for the industry. Technicians are trained in advanced auto body repair for welding, paint, frame pulling, alignment, filler and restoration.

“We are committed to collision repair training for our technicians so we can exceed excellence in auto body repair and customer satisfaction,” said Jim Pfau, general manager of Alan’s Collision. “Technical training is our differentiator as an independent collision repair center. We remain focused on quality as the industry becomes more disrupted by consolidations, multi-shop operations and direct repair programs.”

Alan’s Collision Center, founded in 1975, is the only certified Mercedes-Benz collision repair center in Philadelphia. Most recently, the business became the only Philadelphia auto body shop recognized by Ford for repair of the aluminum Ford F-150.
