AMi Offers Online Enterprise Rent-A-Car ARMS® Automotive Suite Training
Posted on: 02, April, 2017North Richland Hills, Texas, April 2, 2017 — The Automotive Management Institute (AMi), the industry’s leading nonprofit provider and collaborator of administrative and management education for automotive collision and mechanical service repair segments, announces a new online course, teaching the proper use of Enterprise Rent-A-Car’s ARMS® Automotive Suite. The new course, developed by Enterprise, is designed for collision repair specialists to teach them how to use the ARMS program or to improve their functional knowledge of it. “The new course is a result of AMi’s on-going collaboration commitment to bring relevant administrative training to the industry,” said AMi President Jeff Peevy. “We appreciate Enterprise for its support and interest in working closely with us.”
The new online course offers one AMi credit hour towards the achievement of the institute’s Customer Service Certificate, and professional designations; Accredited Automotive Office Manager (AAOM), Accredited Automotive Manager (AAM), Accredited Master Automotive Manager (AMAM) and soon to be released Accredited Collision-Repair Estimator (ACE) and Accredited Master Collision-Repair Estimator (AMCE).
In 1994, Enterprise created the Automated Rental Management System (ARMS®) to help insurance companies simplify the process of managing replacement rental cars for policyholders. ARMS data helps collision repair centers increase operating efficiencies, enhance customer service and streamline communications with insurance companies and customers. The ARMS digital management platform enables repair centers to book rental reservations and send vehicle status updates to insurance partners and customers. In addition, repair centers can track, measure and forecast labor needs, and generate monthly reports through ARMS.
