The University of the Aftermarket, with the help of Northwood University, is accepting applications for online courses that offer continuing education credits and “special industry designations” to automotive industry professionals, according to a press release.

The Distance Education program consists of “in-depth, semester-long business skills classes” led by faculty at Northwood University, explained Executive Director of the University of the Aftermarket Dr. Thomas Litzinger. Continuing education credits earned from the classes can be used toward AAP, ACP, and MAAP designations, as well as college credits.

“The development of our SPAAP designation indicates the University of the Aftermarket's dedication to the Automotive Aftermarket, to continuous education, and to the empowerment of the human condition,” Litzinger stated.
