Training as a pathway to business excellence is the mantra of the latest body shop to attain I-CAR Gold Class Collision status.
Western General Bodyworks Maribyrnong, in the western suburbs of Melbourne has been awarded the prestigious training accreditation.
The Maribynong centre is part of the Western General Bodyworks Group that has more than ten locations across the Eastern states and takes pride in its comprehensive and guaranteed repair services, including specialisation in Tesla repairs.
Western General Bodyworks Maribyrnong managing director Danny Buzadzic said achieving the status was testament to the shop living up to the groups philosophy of always pursuing excellence.
“Our decision to pursue the I-CAR Road to Gold Program for Western General Bodyworks Maribyrnong was fuelled by our unwavering commitment to delivering the finest outcomes to our customers,” Buzadzic says.
“By ensuring that my team members receive top-notch training, I am not only setting my shop apart but also contributing to safer, higher-quality repairs, and improved overall business performance.
“Through achieving the I-CAR Gold Class Collision status, I am dedicated to enhancing our service quality and above all, ensuring the ultimate benefit for our valued customers.”
Buzadzic says the Road to Gold training was also directly relevant and applicable to the changing nature of the collision industry.
“The collision repair landscape is ever evolving with new technologies and techniques emerging regularly,” he says.
“To stay at the forefront, we consider the annual Gold Class renewal training a non-negotiable component of our future plans.
“We will continue to further grow and expand our footprint and view the Gold Class renewal training as an integral part of our ongoing journey towards maintaining the highest standards in the industry.
“The overall learning experience with I-CAR has been truly exceptional. Our team members embarked on a comprehensive journey that encompassed Online Course quizzes, Virtual Classrooms, and Hands-On Certification to attain accreditation.
“The Hands-On Welding Certification was the ultimate validation of our team’s commitment to their courses. It demonstrated not only their attentiveness but also their ability to deliver top-notch repairs, reinforcing our dedication to excellence.
“Overall, I am incredibly pleased with the comprehensive and flexible learning experience provided by I-CAR. It was proven to be an invaluable resource.”
