Equalizer and Beranek Announce Auto Glass University
May 15, 2013
Equalizer, in association with Automotive Glass Consultants has
announced the formation of Auto Glass University (AGU), powered
by Equalizer.
Located in Equalizer's corporate headquarters in Round Rock, Texas,
AGU is designed to provide unbiased, up-to-date information and
training to the auto glass industry in an affordable and hands-on,
instructor-driven context, according to company officials.
Courses will consist of modules that are comprehensive, concise
and pertinent to the duties of the auto glass professional. The
classes will focus on technical training, management, customer service
and safety.
AGU also will offer certification testing for technicians to achieve
both the Auto Glass Technician and Master Technician certifications
offered by the Auto Glass Safety Council (AGSC). AGU is specifically
designed to teach the criteria of the AGSC/AGRSS Replacement Standard.
"Our goal is to be the complete university for auto glass
entrepreneurs and their employees. Each individual who takes our
courses will have access to the latest information and knowledge
necessary to do their job in the best way possible," according
to AGU.
"Working with Equalizer to create an environment for all technicians,
utilizing all the tools possible at their disposal, made perfect
sense," he adds.
"When we approached Bob about combining forces to create a
training center that focused on the current needs of technicians
and trends in the auto glass industry, we realized right away that
we shared the same ideas and principles about the current state
of the industry and what is needed to keep technicians, owners and
anyone interested in a career in the auto glass industry as informed
and empowered as possible." says Eric Asbery, president of
Equalizer. "We are proud to provide the facility and trainers
to help create the best possible experience for auto glass industry
professionals throughout the world."
