AMI Launches Informative Monthly Webinars
The Automotive Management Institute (AMI) announced it will host monthly Webinars beginning in August. The webinars are just like an instructor-led seminar; however, participants view the presentation through their Web-browser and listen to the audio through their telephone. A key feature of a Webinar is its ability to give, receive and discuss information.
Information on Webinar registration — including the upcoming Aug. 8 "Service Marketing for the Independent Service Facility," presented by George Witt — is available online at www.AMIeducationonline.com.
