Key Talking Points:

• AMi and ASE credentials are important because the individual wants to verify their knowledge and experience on the subject
• ASE 47 Year Anniversary-June 16th
  • One of the most mature credentials in any industry
• The Future of ASE: A new way to maintain certification without going to a test center using a smart device
• If we don’t use ASE credentialling we may lose it.
• Tests are assumptions that you’ve learned and can apply
• Credentials- more important than ever, prove to customers and your shop owner you know what you’re doing
• A strong learning culture of successful businesses learn and share knowledge. They get most out of equipment, have fewer turnover employees and have an empowerment rich environment
  • Sustainability and being competitive starts and end with the ability to learn
  • Shops that included those expectations in job descriptions when looking for new hires found a better pool of individuals- more educated and eager to learn    
  • Increase retention by investing in employees
  • Employers should never apologize for sending employees to training  
• AMi has a powerful Learning Management System
