We are all familiar and on a daily basis deal with ever changing sophisticated technology in the varied operating systems of today's vehicles. The industry is seeing many changes in the ways that it conducts business. There are a number of distributor and manufacturer acquisitions and consolidations that have taken place. Remanufactured units are taking a new position and importance in our field. Locating or developing qualified technicians is increasingly more challenging. The need for technical information and assistance is in greater and greater demand. The list of rapidly changing industry-wide conditions seems never ending.
ATRA's board of directors and staff have worked diligently to remain abreast of these many changing conditions and provide for the needs of its members today and in the future. One of the many ways the association has done this is through ATRA Online (www.atraonline.com). In the past several editions of
