TIA Announces ATS Training Tour Date in San Diego

March 13, 2015

March 13, 2015—The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has announced new dates for its Certified Automotive Training Service (ATS) Instructor Class.

Held in the San Diego area, the courses will take place April 14–17, at Cuyamaca College in El Cajon, Calif.

The ATS Instructor Program is a four-day classroom and hands-on class that industry professionals must complete in order to return to train technicians to prepare them for certification. TIA has used the train-the-trainer approach to train and/or certify more than 93,000 technicians since 1997.

Certified ATS includes safety guidelines and step-by-step procedures for all aspects of passenger and light truck tire service including wheel installation with the proper torque and tire repair. It also includes a full day of instruction on Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS), so technicians have a thorough understanding of the requirements for the most popular domestic and import vehicles.
