Car-O-Liner, I-CAR, the I-CAR Education Foundation, ASE, and NATEF should all be applauded, as their generosity demonstrates different organizations working together to ensure that the collision industry continues to move in a positive direction.”To be eligible, an entrant must be I-CAR-trained as well as ASE-certified, or attend an ASE-certified NATEF career and technical school or college which also utilizes the I-CAR Live curriculum.
