Sacramento, CA – January 18, 2016 – DBA
International is pleased to announce that the National Alliance of Buy Here,
Pay Here Dealers (NABD) has become an Authorized Education Provider. Those in
the receivables industry can earn continuing education credits toward DBA
International certification for completion of in-person, live webinar, or
online courses offered through NABD.
NABD
earned the Authorized Education Provider designation by demonstrating
excellence in providing instruction to the buy here, pay here (BHPH) industry.
The association is dedicated to improving the quality of BHPH dealers through
education, ongoing training, and by promoting the interests of self-finance
dealers nationwide. NABD hosts two large, well-attended conferences each year,
two of which DBA International board members have participated in as presenters
in 2015.
NABD
President and Founder Ken Shilson said, “NABD is very pleased that DBA
International has selected us as an Authorized Education Provider. As a special
interest group, we are organized to work with other associations, like DBA, for
the betterment of the subprime auto finance industry. The BHPH industry faces
several new legal and regulatory challenges, and we are working diligently to
help our members successfully meet them. Our evolving relationship with DBA
International will provide NABD members with access to experts in debt collection,
compliance, loss mitigation, and with new capital market resources. It will
benefit both organizations. NABD plans to have DBA International conduct an
interactive workshop at our National BHPH Conference at the Wynn in Las Vegas on May 24-26,
2016.”
“Auto
Finance Receivables and the subprime market are growing at an unprecedented
pace,” noted Jan Steiger, Executive Director of DBA International. “Many of our
members already work in this area, and many more are exploring opportunities to
expand in this asset class. As an Authorized Education Provider, our members
will benefit from the expertise and resources of NABD’s education offerings and
conferences as it simplifies the process for obtaining certification credits
for our members.”
