Non-Structural Damage Estimating 3.0 UNITS

Catalog description

This is an entry-level course for students wanting to learn to estimate non-structural (minor) automotive damage. Emphasis is on vehicle construction and structural design, repair methodology, vehicle component and systems identification, and in developing appropriate judgment repair times. Students learn to write hand-written estimates identifying the cost of parts, labor materials, sublet, and other charges required to return damaged vehicles to factory specifications. Students use collision estimating guides to establish parts prices and industry standard labor times for replacement and refinishing of damaged parts. Additionally, students learn to use "Procedure Pages" in the estimating guides for processes not included in the standard times listed in the guide. I-CAR Live training may be included in course delivery.
