Featured Remarkable Results Podcast: 
Kelly Moore – Enticing our Youth to have a Career
in the Aftermarket
This episode features Ben Johnson, Director, Project Management, Mitchell 1.

Talking points on this ADAS-centric episode include: ADAS training class - training is maintenance, instructors need the training to give a training class Full class; ADAS is not a “thing,” it is industry generated category - each car company will use different terms for ADAS systems (ex: blind-spot monitoring), no standardization; Every technician is working on an ADAS even when they don’t realize it - removing the radar sensor for a different problem and reinstalling without calibrating could lead to bigger issue; and much more!

The ADA Checklist: 2019 - 2020 Compliance Guidelines to Make Your Website Accessible
ADA website compliance and web accessibility are two terms that are used interchangeably but they are distinct from one another.

ADA stands for the Americans with Disabilities Act which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability. Courts are construing Title III of the ADA to mean that websites must be accessible. Thus, with ADA website compliance, we're referring to the law.
