What Does I-CAR Gold Class Mean?

I-CAR (Inter-Industry Conference on Auto Collision Repair) is one of the most recognized training organizations in the collision repair industry. Shops that achieve Gold Class recognition demonstrate an ongoing commitment to advanced training and continued education for their technicians.

For customers, this means your vehicle is being repaired by a shop that invests in:

  • Current collision repair training

  • Modern repair procedures

  • Vehicle safety systems knowledge

  • Proper refinishing and structural repair methods

  • Ongoing education as vehicle technology changes

Not every auto body shop earns or maintains Gold Class status. It requires consistent training and dedication to high repair standards.

Why Choosing a Certified Auto Body Shop Matters?
