Since the subject has come up several times in recent threads I found this article to be very relevant to the issue of professional training. http://www.moderncarcare.com/Articles/371deta1.html

Neat, for the heck of it, I`m checking out the websites of the local community colleges around me to see if they have any courses. I`m curious.

A couple places to get you started: www.i-car.com, www.autoint.com, www.detailplus.com. All offer training (I believe that the i-car course is actually licensed from Auto International).

Isn`t ICAR the same outfit that certifies body and paint shops as well?

Not everyone always agrees with Bud A, he usually has very professional and informative advice, and is always willing to help.

I agree. I initially thought very little of his business practices but have warmed due to his genuine interest in furthering the industry. He has gone out of his way to help me out in planning for building my new shop.
