GEICO's auto
damage training center in McLean, Va., was recognized by
I-CAR for
achieving its I-CAR Gold Class Professionals
designation, which
identifies collision repair industry facilities that are
committed to
providing the highest-level of training necessary to
keep its team
up-to-date on the most current vehicle technology and
repair procedures.
“The I-CAR Gold Class Professionals designation is
something that’s very important to us,” said William
DeGrocco, GEICO’s assistant vice president of auto
damage claims. “This ensures that each GEICO associate
trained in our training center receives training from an
I-CAR trained instructor who is up-to-date on the most
current vehicle technology and repair procedures. We are
extremely proud of GEICO’s instructors.”
GEICO adjusters from across the United States train at
the McLean facility. “By achieving this designation,”
said Tim Hession, director of auto damage training, “not
only will the training center be kept informed of the
industry’s best practices, but the knowledge learned
will be passed along to each of our adjusters, as well.
Our goal is to provide the best service to our customers
and achieving the I-CAR Gold Class Professionals
designation proves that we have a dedicated team of auto
damage trainers. Serving our customers is our top
priority and I-CAR helps us in achieving that mission,”
he noted.
John Van Alstyne, I-CAR president and CEO said,
“I-CAR congratulates GEICO on earning its I-CAR® Gold
Class Professionals™ designation and welcomes it into
I-CAR’s expanding network of I-CAR Gold Class
Professionals businesses.” Van Alstyne continued,
“GEICO’s commitment to training on today’s ever-changing
vehicle technology will continue to provide its auto
