The 2018 Annual Nebraska Auto Body Association Conference will be held Dec. 1 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Lincoln, Neb.     

This is the annual business meeting for the NABA. In addition to association business, this will be an education day that  brings relevant, crucial and up to date information.         

“The educational message is clear,” states Dave Yard, President of the NABA. “We are focusing on better business and doing proper repairs.”

3M’s Shawn Collins presentation on “Corrosion Protection” shows attendees why this is such an important part of the repair, how to do it and how to get paid for this. Collins, a SEMA and NACE presenter, brings his important message to Nebraska. 

Mark Olson, VECO Experts, will present three segments throughout the day: “Bulletproof File,” “Canary In  The Coal Mine” and “10 Things To A Quality Repair.” Olson is an advocate for collision repairers and brings 32 years of success to his message.

Regional GM Representative Herb Anderson will give an update on the General Motors Certification program. Industry attorney Erica Eversman is researching the Nebraska Unfair Claims Practices act for this association. The report will be given at this meeting by NABA Board Member James Rodis, Woodhouse Dealerships.   

Historically, this is a very well-attended meeting. It is an opportunity for collision repairers to meet, network and move forward together. For those coming in Friday for the Saturday program, there will be a welcome reception at the Hilton Garden Inn, 6-8 p.m.
