The American Council of Frame and Alignment Specialists is offering a presentation demonstrating and educating technicians on how to properly inspect a vehicle.
The one and a half day presentation is being given by Andy Blair, a former Pennsylvania Police and Department of Transportation Enforcement Officer and independent instructor. Blair will help attendees understand what enforcement officers are looking for during inspections.
The presentation aims to help technicians do their job thoroughly so that customers will not get an out-of-service violation after leaving the shop. It will include a classroom session, as well as hands-on demonstrations using actual trucks, trailers, and school buses.
The DOT Technician Training presentation will take place from April 30 - May 2 at Frame Service Inc., in Ft. Wayne Indiana. Sessions will take place on May 1 and 2. To register online go to acofas.com. To find out more information, contact Gordon Botts at gbotts@bottswelding.com.
