HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. — In August of 2005, I-CAR launched I-CAR Online self-study training where students are able to complete the programs on their time, at their choosing, and print their own certificate after successful completion of each program’s post test.

Now, less than three years later, I-CAR announces that online classes have reached the 10,000 mark. Online training has gained momentum over the years eclipsing 5,000 classes taken by August of 2007; and doubling that number less than a year later on June 10, 2008.

I-CAR Technical Director Jason Bartanen says, “I-CAR had a lot of students requesting access to training whenever and wherever they wanted it. I-CAR Online training offers students worldwide the flexibility to learn whenever it’s most convenient for them. Students can attend training before work, while on their lunch break, or even at night after putting their kids to bed; all they need is a computer and access to the Internet. It’s truly 24/7 training.”

I-CAR says that what started out as 10 I-CAR Online programs at the time of launch has grown to 40 training programs available to the collision industry 24/7. Visit www.i-car.com/online for additional information and a complete list of the available training programs.
