The updated training requirements require fewer appraiser staff to achieve I-CAR ProLevel® 2 and 3, but more appraisers will be required to achieve at least I-CAR ProLevel® 1 status.
Program enhancements were initially communicated in January 2013 at the Collision Industry Conference (CIC) meeting in Palm Springs, California. I-CAR has continued to provide additional details on program updates during three Regional Conferences throughout the first quarter in South Padre Island, Anaheim, and Fort Lauderdale. 500+ Inter-Industry
members were present at the Regional Conferences and I-CAR is continuing to proactively communicate this important news with the industry at large.
