We are very proud of the fact that todays greatly improved I-CAR training courses cost 37% less than what they cost when I-CAR began offering technical training courses 20 years ago." Rick Tuuri, I-CAR Chairman, stated that I-CAR is a unique organization, in that its sole purpose is to provide technical training to the Collision Industry. Since I-CAR is a not-for-profit, largely supported by a great Volunteer organization, its pricing is a function of covering its fixed costs. Therefore, the more the Industry trains, the lower the prices, the better the value! In other words, the more the Industry supports I-CAR, the better I-CAR can support the Industry. I-CAR, founded in 1979, is an international, not-for-profit, training organization dedicated to improving the quality, safety and efficiency of auto collision repair for the ultimate benefit of the consumer.
