PETER MCNAMARA PRESIDENT, NHADA AND AFFILIATES EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, NEW HAMPSHIRE AUTOMOTIVE EDUCATION FOUNDATION

I t’s said that knowledge is power. Well, maybe. At the very least, knowledge can be influential. We are pleased to announce that the 2019 NHADA Town Hall Meetings have been scheduled and are coming to a location near you. Please put one of the days listed below on your calendar so you won’t miss out. The NHADA town meetings are your opportunity to hear about our progress in the legislature with laws that affect New Hampshire’s automobile industry. There will be a comprehensive rundown of the NHADA Education Foundation’s (NHAEF’s) activities including the auto tech competition and the recruitment and education initia- tives that will get the highest qualified auto technicians in your shops. Our Town Hall meetings also provide a local opportunity to network with each other and our industry partners. We encourage shop owners and managers, and service managers in particular, to attend.
