Sept. 16, 2016

Sept. 16, 2016—BASF announced Thursday that it is sponsoring the Repairer Driven Education (RDE) Series at SEMA 2016 for the seventh consecutive year. 

“BASF has always placed a clear emphasis on the role education plays in elevating our industry,” said Aaron Schulenburg, executive director of the Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS), which hosts the conference. “When RDE was launched in 2010, BASF was the first company to commit their support. We couldn’t be more pleased to have their involvement year after year.”

BASF is a Masters+OEM Summit Level Sponsor, which signifies sponsorship of each of the nearly 30 RDE classes during SEMA and the OEM Summit. 

Tom Hoerner, BASF strategic initiatives business solutions leader, will lead the RDE class, “Scheduling and Workflow Solutions” on Nov. 4. The class focuses on the scheduling process and how balancing vehicle intake affects work in process, cycle time and touch time.

SEMA will take place Nov. 1-4 in Las Vegas.
