to collision. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sponsored by AirPro Diagnostics, this year\u2019s educational slate includes presentations from Expertech Automotive Training and Consulting, Bosch, and NAPA for mechanical repair professionals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThings are changing so quickly,\u201d said AASP\/NJ Mechanical Executive Director Joe Ocello. \u201cShops are struggling to keep up with rapid industry changes like staffing shortages and rising costs. One doesn\u2019t always have the time to follow up on the many issues the mechanical field experiences, but NORTHEAST provides opportunities to learn how to tackle these issues from those in the know.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ira Waldman and Tim Iezzi of Expertech Automotive Training and Consulting will present \u201cFixing the NO Start\u201d to provide attendees with practical procedures that they can use in the shop to diagnose no starts. They will also teach \u201cIntroduction to Module Programming,\u201d which will cover how to program GM and Chrysler modules using both OEM and aftermarket tools. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Bosch\u2019s Steve Haney will present \u201cBosch Precision ADAS: Mastering Repair and Calibration.\u201d Participants will gain a clear understanding of ADAS components, features, and how these systems support collision avoidance and driver safety.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Kenneth Pollin of NAPA will present \u201cTPMS &amp; Alignment: Turning Two Overlooked Systems into Reliable Profit Centers.\u201d He will cover how to turn those systems into standardized, documented, and dependable profit centers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cModern vehicles depend on proper tire pressure and suspension geometry for stability control, braking performance, ADAS accuracy and overall handling,\u201d Pollin said. \u201cYet, many shops still treat them reactively. In today&#8217;s market, that leaves both safety and profitability untapped.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Educational sessions at NORTHEAST cost $35 per person, but attendees can get a discount on a Full Access NORTHEAST Educational Pass for $249. Attendees can also bring a plus one to the same class for free.
