AOCA Education Committee

---

The Education Committee provides guidance and recommendations to the AOCA Board of Directors on providing members and the industry with cutting-edge, up-to-date training on operations, technical issues, business practices, and general management using classroom learning, publications, online and distance learning methods.

Specifically, the Education Committee will:

1. Develop and maintain learning opportunities specific for fast lube owners.
2. Develop and maintain learning opportunities specific for fast lube managers.
3. Develop and maintain learning opportunities specific for fast lube technicians.
4. Provide as many learning platforms as feasible to membership and industry including classroom, self-paced, instructor-led, online webinars, publications, convention seminars, tip sheets, fact sheets and others.

The following are the current activities the Education Committee:

• Owners seminar oversight
• Managers course oversight and update/revision process (2009)
• Technician course oversight - online and textbook versions
• Convention education sessions oversight

Proposed:

• Research existing courses and/or co-marketing opportunities
• Regularly scheduled live web seminars on topical issues
• Brief, online interactive courses on Presenting Services and other applicable topics.
• Online "teasers" of owner, manager and tech courses that provide learning opportunities but serve to market the courses.
• How to Guides
• Tech Tips (web and pdf-style)
• Management and Operations Guides (web and pdf-style)
