VISION is more than simply Automotive Training

For over 30 years, VISION Hi-Tech Training & Expo has been the premier automotive service event in the country, being well-known across the industry as a top-notch automotive training event and networking spectacular.

Thousands of talented automotive service professionals join together every year. In 2024 alone, VISION saw over 3,500 attendees.

You’re invited to  join the fun for 2025 and beyond when VISION returns to Kansas City to do it all again.

This was my first time to VISION and it will now be on my calendar every year to come. Everything was beyond what was expected. Thanks to the VISION team for a great event.
Joshua HutchinsTeam Auto Group
There is nothing that compares to the weekend full of training you get at VISION. Partnered with an unexplainable feeling of family that surrounds you as you sit in class and walk around the convention centers. I hope to be able to attend every VISION that I have the chance to! This should be an absolute tool for both experienced and novice folks looking to streamline the hiring process!"
Tyler SteeverJerry’s Service Center
VISION is MUST ATTEND for any automotive professional. The world class training, networking with the best in the business, and the industry support from vendors is second to none. Our business success rides on events like VISION to keep us at the top of our game and able to serve our guests!
Matthew WaggAccelerated Diagnostic & Automotive
This was my first time at VISION. I've been a dealer tech for the past 14 years and I was in the independent for 8 years when I started my career. I found out about VISION when I took a teaching job last year. I've had years and years of factory training but nothing compared to this event. This was one of the best things I've ever done in my life! Everything went so perfect with this event. You guys did a fantastic job! I will be coming every year to this event.
Ryan HickersonWeber Chevrolet
VISION is an amazing opportunity to not only gain the best training in the industry but also to meet and network with the best people and trainers. You get the idea the trainers are truly interested and not just presenting. When a trainer gives his / her personal contact information, that means a lot to me. I have attended VISION since 1996 and it seems every year just gets better. If you've never attended, you owe it to yourself, your team and your clients to make VISION an annual part of your growth.
