HAMILTON, ON -- June 18, 2008 -- Calling it a major shift in how training is offered in the collision repair industry, Collision Industry Information and Assistance (www.ciia.com) representing Ontario-based collision repair associations, today started offering online training in 23 different courses for less than $3.00 each.

“Our members have been asking about isocyanate and Vehicle Lift Safety in order to meet Ministry requirements in their shops, and we wanted to provide for them a quick, easy inexpensive training solution," says Mark Timson, a Caledonia area shop owner and a director of www.ciia.com. "In cooperation with E.A.G.L. Enterprises in Pickering, Ontario, we are now able to offer health, safety and management training courses online that shops and staff can access at any time.”

Member shops can access the collision repair industry web site by clicking here. Registration forms can be faxed, e-mailed or completed online. Member shops can call Monica at 866-309-4272 for more information. Member shops pay $60.00 plus GST and get access to any or all of the courses for a full year. Completion documents are provided after the member successfully completes an individual course exam online. A training certificate identifying all courses taken is issued annually. Other courses offered include Fire Safety, Back Safety, Due Diligence, Joint Health and Safety Committee, Understanding Bill C-45, Safety Inspections, Office Ergonomics, Stretches and Heat Stress.
