The event’s mission is “to provide an annual forum for collision repair professionals in the region – where attendees can visit exhibits, receive important industry information and training, stay abreast of new vehicle technologies, learn the best methods for marketplace success and stay focused on consumer safety.”

The conference will include presentations by the Coalition for Collision Repair Excellence, AirPro Diagnostics, Sherwin-Williams, VeriFacts, Mitchell, Collision Advice, CCC and others. Jeff Peevy, president of the Automotive Management Institute, will serve as the emcee and facilitator.
