Michael Van Veckhoven recently graduated from the Dealer Candidate Academy of the National Automobile Dealers Association. The specialized training curriculum is designed to prepare dealer successors and key management personnel to operate a new car or truck dealership.
Van Veckhoven plans to use the skills developed at the academy to prepare for further management responsibilities at his family-owned dealership, New South Ford Nissan.
The academy is an intensive 12-month apprenticeship course in dealership management. Six weeks of classroom study are combined with 45 weeks of in-dealership training.
The National Automobile Dealers Association, founded in 1917 and based in McLean, Va., represents more than 20,000 new car and truck dealers, holding more than 43,000 separate franchises, both domestic and international.
