I-CAR® Offers New Online Cycle Time Course for Appraisers

Hoffman Estates, IL
April 06, 2017

In today’s business environment, efficiency is essential to bottom-line performance, and reducing cycle time is one of the most powerful ways to increase efficiency in a collision repair facility. I-CAR has launched a new online course on the topic specifically focused for auto physical damage appraisers (APDAs). 

The course, Understanding Cycle Time as an Appraiser (AP055E01), was designed specifically to provide APDAs with an understanding of cycle time as it relates to the collision damage repair process. 
 
The development of this course is part of I-CAR’s new approach to place an even greater emphasis on the perspective of each course’s intended audiences. In this case, the course was created with an additional focus on the specific needs of APDAs.
 
Conveniently offered in a one hour, online format, the course will help the APDA identify how to measure cycle time, identify waste in the repair process, and learn how standard operating procedures can be used to create a consistently high-quality repair process. 
 
The course also presents APDAs with a basic understanding of repair blueprinting and 100 percent teardown, both of which can be beneficial for improving cycle time, as well as information on supplements and their impact on cycle time.
