On the morning of July 24, the IARA will host three roundtable conversations on topics affecting the present and future of the remarketing industry.
The first discussion will be Problems as an Industry with CarFax and AutoCheck, and representatives from both companies will be on-hand to moderate the discussion. This will be followed by a session on the Further Education and Certification of New Remarketers.
Before lunch, the final roundtable will deal with Getting Vehicle Valuations Sold on the Internet into the Guidebooks. Representatives from Black Book and Kelley Blue Book will participate in the session.
