New Scholarship from Zurich: Application Deadline is Aug. 17
The Automotive Management Institute (AMI), in conjunction with Zurich, formerly Universal Underwriters Group, has announced a new scholarship program to help automotive service professionals obtain the management education crucial for success in today’s competitive industry environment. One scholarship will be awarded to an Automotive Service Association (ASA) Mechanical Division member who strives to be, or is presently working in a management capacity.
Zurich introduced the scholarship program, called High Octane, specifically to address the educational needs of the automotive aftermarket. A leader in the automotive insurance industry, Zurich provides a range of customized products for the automotive aftermarket.
Bob Tschippert, Senior Vice President of Zurich’s Automotive Specialty Markets division is pleased to offer the High Octane scholarship program to ASA members. Tschippert states, “We at Zurich truly understand the unique needs of those in the aftermarket industry. We created our High Octane program in part to help give those in the industry an opportunity to acquire quality business management education.”
The scholarship will be applied toward the recipient’s expenses to attend the 2007 Congress of Automotive Repair and Service (CARS) in Las Vegas, Nov. 1-3. CARS is sponsored by ASA and offers an educational lineup of AMI seminars, technical training courses and industry sessions, an exhibitor showcase and the opportunity to network with other automotive service professionals.
“AMI continues to work with industry leaders to establish greater opportunities for automotive service professionals to obtain the skills necessary for their growth and success,” said AMI Executive Director Toni Slaton, AAM. “We are very pleased to be working with Zurich to offer this new scholarship opportunity.”
