For those of you who don&#8217;t know what my career looked like in the 90s, it started as a management trainer working with the <strong>Automotive Management Institute (AMI) out of Texas.<\/strong> The original name of our training company was the <strong>\u201cAutomotive Career Development Center\u201d<\/strong> (ACDC for short) and that name had absolutely nothing to do with electric cars at that time.

We start with our basic 9 classes, and then we&#8217;ll add more as I get some feel from the people that are taking the classes. The specific topics may need more attention, so after the one-hour long classes are done, specific topic can be covered, sometimes in less than 30 minutes. <strong>We start up in December and take some time off for the holidays.<\/strong> It would be great for your management staff, or anyone in the shop, to get a complete picture of how a business works from insurance to workman&#8217;s compensation, finances and everything in between. Getting and retaining new customers and more. <strong>We will make sure you&#8217;re prepared for a future that doesn&#8217;t look anything like today as Covid-19, new EV pickup trucks and more will change how we do business. \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Craig van Batenburg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US election is over, Covid 19 is out of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8790","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8790"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8790\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12298,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8790\/revisions\/12298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fixhybrid.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
