The Iowa Collision Repair Association and Arnold Motor Supply is pleased to announce that Jack Riesenberg, son of Chuck Riesenberg of the Collision Center of West Bend, Iowa is the 2010 winner. Jack is attending Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa working towards a civil engineering degree. “By receiving a degree in civil engineering, I am a step closer to accomplishing my goals of changing the lives of others by making this world a little better place to live, whether it be with constructing roads that manage traffic better, bridges that last longer, or buildings that are eco-friendly and appealing,” Riesenberg writes in his essay.
“This is our first try with the Scholarship program,” says ICRA President Mark Martin, “We are very very pleased with the result, and want to recognize Arnold Motor Supply for their contribution.” “We received many great Scholarship applications that reflect the integrity of our collision industry family. The ICRA is proud of all our applicants and wish them success in their endeavors.” University of Northern Iowa Offers Hazardous Air Pollutants Training The IWRC has developed an online training program to meet the 6H NESHAP regulation requirements. The online structure allows small businesses more cost-effective access to training, as it eliminates travel expenses and employee absences. The IWRC's 6H NESHAP training provides painters with the necessary training to comply with the regulation, and to improve their skills, which will save time, money and materials. The program is an interactive online slideshow, that can be accessed 24 hours a day. It typically takes approximately two hours, but painters can learn at their own pace. A supplemental section outlines the required hands-on training to be completed at a painter's own facility. The IWRC understands the needs of small businesses and created this program to provide easy access to painter training that will meet the requirements of the new regulation. The final product is useful for all sizes and types of businesses affected by the rule," said John Konefes, IWRC director. The online painter training course costs $199; quantity discounts are available. For additional information or to access the training, contact the IWRC at 877-777-0791 or visit www.sprayitright.com.
