The International Automotive Technicians Network (iATN®) and the Automotive Service Association (ASA)-Midwest have teamed up to live broadcast the Educator Think Tank Panel Discussion taking place on Friday, March 7, at 4 p.m., CST, during the VISION Hi-Tech Training & Expo.

Prior to the one-hour panel discussion, educators will have had the opportunity to attend VISION training sessions specifically designed for them on topics including “Teaching to the YouTube Audience,” “OBDII/CAN Update to MODEs $01 - $0A,” “Using Mobile: What has Happened? How Do I Get on Board?” “Engaging Today’s Learners” and “Grant Writing Workshop - Demystifying the Process.” The panel discussion will give educators a forum to discuss the topics and summarize the knowledge gained from the day’s sessions.

Panelists will include Jeff Curtis, a diesel technology instructor at Bellingham Technical College, Bellingham, Wash.; Paul Danner, an instructor at Rosedale Technical Institute, Pittsburgh, Pa.; Tim Dwyer, an instructor at Oklahoma State University, Okmulgee, Okla.; Bill Lieb, an automotive technology instructor at the Fort Osage Career and Technology Center, Independence, Mo.; and Doug Mueller who has more than 30,000 hours of automotive training both as a student and teacher and is the owner of TecHelp, a training company in Northern California.
