SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- The Automotive Dealership Institute and the Arizona Independent Automobile Dealers Association have formed an alliance to offer AIADA member dealerships ADI’s fully trained F&I managers, secondary finance managers, Internet department managers, service advisers and business office clerks at no fee.
The agreement was announced jointly by ADI CEO/Director of Operations Alan Algan and AIADI Executive Director Charity Crawford at the AIADA’s 37th Annual Convention.
The diploma-holding graduates and alumni of ADI will be offered directly to the Arizona independent car dealers through the AIADA, enabling members to take advantage of well-trained management and support personnel while serving to increase the placement rate of ADI, which already stands at more than 97 percent.
It was also announced that AIADA fully endorses ADI as the association’s preferred F&I training facility. AIADA’s seal of endorsement will be proudly displayed on ADI’s Web site and other marketing materials.
