Technicians Service Training to hold '9th Big Event,' sponsored by Motor Age

Technicians Service Training (TST) will hold its "9th Big Event" on March 24, 2012, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Ramada Conference Center in Fishkill, N.Y.

The 9th Big Event, sponsored by Motor Age, will feature seminars covering Toyota Hybrid Case Studies, P0420 Diagnostics, and Ignition Waveform Diagnostics, with a keynote address by Pete Meier, technical editor of Motor Age.

In 2011, Motor Age formed a content partnership with TST to produce four technical webinars. Aimed at automotive technicians, each webinar is 60 minutes in length and presented in a live and interactive video format through Motor Age's web portal, SearchAutoParts.com. Four more joint webinars with TST are planned in 2012.

"We are excited to continue our partnership with TST through their training event in March, and ongoing webinars throughout the year," said Jim Savas, vice president, Advanstar Automotive Group. "Both of our organizations share the mission of raising the level of technicians' education so they can properly service today's vehicles."

"G" Jerry Truglia, founder and president of TST, said, "It is widely known that Advanstar's goal is to contribute to automotive education - whether online, in print or in person. We are pleased with Motor Age's partnership with TST, because it greatly expands the opportunity for technicians to receive top-quality training."
