The I-CAR® Industry Training Alliance exists to recognize the accomplishments of training through approved training providers. All programs approved for inclusion into the Industry Training Alliance must support the I-CAR Vision that every person in the collision industry, current and future, has the necessary knowledge and skills relevant to their position to achieve a complete and safe repair. After successful completion of the program and application, I-CAR points can be awarded. These points apply to both the Gold Class Professionals and Platinum Individual programs, however points will expire and must be repeated or other training taken to maintain designations. More information about applying for I-CAR points for training taken through the Industry Training Alliance and applications fees can be found in the Industry Training Alliance application. Earning Points through the Alliance The I-CAR Industry Training Alliance Student Application can be completed online, then printed and faxed or mailed to I-CAR. This application verifies that the training you have completed is eligible for recognition and points through the Industry Training Alliance. Only training programs listed on the application form are eligible. The Alliance student application processing fee is:
Each student must submit a separate application. To save money, a single student can apply for I-CAR recognition of multiple Industry Training Alliance courses on one student application and the same processing fee structure will apply. (Please note that recognition of I-CAR courses completed at career and technical schools and colleges requires a different application. Please visit the Schools & Colleges area of the website for more information) Many training courses from I-CAR Industry Training Alliance members have expiration dates that are based on certification terms determined by those members providing the training. Upon expiration, the points students receive for those training programs also expire. Application and fees should be substituted: Once your application is processed, I-CAR points will be applied to your personal training record that can be viewed by visiting my.I-CAR.com. Certificates are not issued by I-CAR for training received through the I-CAR Industry Training Alliance. Important: In order to ensure that your training has been recorded and can be verified by your Industry Training Alliance provider, I-CAR recommends you wait for at least 45 days after completing training to submit your application. All points earned through the I-CAR Industry Training Alliance are tested and can therefore apply to the training requirements for the I-CAR Platinum Individual® or I-CAR Gold Class Professionals® business recognition programs.
