About Us

 Since the early 2000s the collision industry has experiencing a shortage of qualified and well-trained entry level employees. The country's technical education system was no longer able to produce enough high-caliber graduates who could meet industry needs. in response the board of directors formed Carroll Cars Foundation, Inc. Today, nearly two-thirds of the 1,370 collision repair schools in the united states use the I-CAR Live curriculum which covers all the necessary training information to provide an excellent entry level professional.    Secondary and post-secondary schools nationwide have experienced severe funding cuts from Federal, state, and local sources. As a result, schools may not be able to provide adequate funding for their collision training programs, despite full class enrollment. In addition, collision repair students traditionally have not been offered the same scholarship and financial aid support as their counterparts in other post-secondary educational institutions. 

The CCF Foundation is committed to awarding substantial annual support, both to students and entry and intermediate level professionals.  We are also committed to promoting the collision industry as an excellent career and one of the last real “hands-on” trades in existence.
