The Tire Industry Association (TIA) has scheduled six, in-person, 400-Level Certified Commercial Tire Service (CTS) instructor classes for 2022.
TIA says the four-day certified CTS instructor class covers all aspects of medium/heavy truck tire service and also teaches attendees how to instruct a 300-level certified technician course in the field. The coursework consists of 18 modules, including wheel service and torque, single-piece and multi-piece rim demounting, mounting and inflation and more.
“In-person instruction has been a key component of TIA’s 400-Level instructor certification programs since 1997,” said Kevin Rohlwing, TIA senior vice president of training. “There are a lot of benefits associated with hands-on instruction and demonstrations, so we are excited to return to the field with in-person classes to continue building a network of certified instructors that improves tire safety in the shop and on the highway.”
Additional 400-Level CTS Instructor classes are scheduled as follows:
- April 19-22 – Youngstown, Ohio
- May 10-13 – Baltimore, Md.
- Sept. 20-23 – Youngstown, Ohio
- Oct. 11-14 – Louisville, Ky.
- Dec. 6-9 – Brooksville, Fla.
