SUMMARY:Who Drives Who: How Automakers Influence the Aftermarket and Vice Versa
DESCRIPTION:Business decisions by automakers have a downstream influence on the aftermarket. The vehicles they choose to build have a profound influence on aftermarket decisions for parts\, training\, skills and innovation. EVs are a good example. Older EVs are coming out of warranty and entering the aftermarket – even as the market for new model EVs is uncertain.  \nConversely\, the aftermarket also influences the automakers. The aftermarket is often the first to see design or engineering flaws\, which leads them to create better parts. Some of the topics likely to come up in this well-rounded discussion include\, but are not limited to: \n\nSkilled labor shortage  \nRight to repair\nSupply chain disruptions/redundancy\nThe aging car parc\nParts manufacturing and innovation\nTechnology proliferation and training/continuing education

SUMMARY:Plan Today for Turning Your Shop into a Payday Tomorrow: Sell\, Scale or Pass it on
DESCRIPTION:Transitioning Your Business is a practical course designed to help auto repair shop owners understand how to grow\, value\, and ultimately transition their business—whether through succession\, sale\, or acquisition. The course breaks down how to determine what a shop is truly worth using real financials\, including EBITDA and key adjustments\, and what actually drives value\, like profitability and reducing owner dependence. It also helps owners understand what a deal really looks like after taxes\, debt\, and other obligations so they can plan their exit with clear expectations. \nThe course also walks through the full transition process\, including selling to a key employee\, acquiring another shop\, or structuring a clean exit. Owners learn the differences between asset and stock sales\, how to structure a deal\, and what’s included in a transaction—from equipment and inventory to goodwill and non-competes. The goal is to give shop owners a straightforward roadmap to turn their business into a valuable asset and transition it on their terms. \n  \nTo register for this session\, please CLICK HERE.

SUMMARY:Scan Data Analysis: How to Maximize Your Scan Tools Abilities for Driveability Diagnostics
DESCRIPTION:This course helps technicians maximize the diagnostic information they can glean from the simple act of plugging into the vehicles DLC connection!  A logical and systematic path to driveability diagnostics is emphasized. Navigating and drilling down the PCM data stream will aid techs in both code and no code driveability issues.  Learn how to use the information in the PCM data stream to save valuable time and avoid wasting time on intrusive testing.   \nOur scan tools have gotten so much more powerful in their graphing ability and scanner movie/snapshot buffer size.  The diagnostic test drive will be discussed how to determine the engine’s ability to be fueled and its ability to breathe quickly and efficiently.  Graphing scan data\, creating and archiving snapshots/ movies will be discussed for documentation of driveability failures. Enable criteria\, circuit vs. component performance\, freeze frame\, fail records and repair verification will be explored. \nSeveral case studies using many different scan tools both OE and aftermarket\, will illustrate how to gain solid diagnostic direction quickly and efficiently for low power\, hesitation\, misfire\, fuel delivery\, vacuum leaks\, and component circuit failures and much more.  \nTo register for this session\, please CLICK HERE.

SUMMARY:Rewiring the Aftermarket with Agentic
DESCRIPTION:Connecting customer behavior\, inventory\, pricing\, and omnichannel execution to drive growth  \n\n\nIn this session\, BCG will explore rapidly-emerging applications and implications across three areas:  \n\n\n\nOmnichannel customer experience: Customers increasingly research\, engage\, and transact across the counter\, phone\, web\, email\, and text\, while expecting a more and more connected experience. AI agents are enabling continuity across these interactions – from answering questions and scheduling appointments to sending reminders and live service updates \n\n\n\n\nInventory optimization: Leaders are leveraging customer and demand signals to help distinguish the parts whose availability determines whether a sale is won or lost from those where stock matters less – optimizing sales\, working capital\, and the ability to better service the customer. \n\n\n\n\nLong-tail pricing: Pricing agents can expand the level of research and analytical rigor applied to large portfolios of slower-moving parts – an area that historically has received far less attention than the highest-volume parts \n\n\n\nJoin the conversation on how these developments are changing the way aftermarket organizations use data\, serve customers\, and manage commercial decisions at scale.  \nThis session is approved for continuing education units (CEUs) through the University of the Aftermarket. Participants must have their badge scanned at the session to receive credit. \nEarn Continuing Education Credits at AAPEX 2026 \nAdvance your professional development while gaining valuable industry insights at AAPEX! Five sessions have been approved for continuing education units (CEUs) through Northwood University’s University of the Aftermarket. Attendees can earn up to 0.44 CEUs by participating in all five sessions. CEUs can count toward professional designations offered through the University of the Aftermarket\, including AAP and MAAP.
