NPDA unveils EDGE-ucation platform
The National Powersports Dealer Association (NPDA) in the United States has launched its EDGE educational platform, allowing dealership owners and staff to capitalize on Education, Development, Growth and Excellence.
Education - Industry-leading training programs tailored for Dealership roles;
Development - Career pathways that support Dealership employee growth and retention;
Growth - Elevating Dealership performance through knowledge;
Excellence - Setting new standards for professionalism in powersports.
"The NPDA was formed to give our Dealer Members an edge in profitability, so it's exciting to get EDGE underway," said Bob Kee, co-owner of Destination Cycle in Kerrville, Texas, and Chairman of the NPDA Board of Directors."Our goal is to provide Dealership owners and staff with tools for sustainable profitability, and the EDGE curriculum is an important component."
The EDGE platform launched in April with the first in a year-long offering of live, interactive webinars. Owners and staff at NPDA-member dealerships, as well as NPDA Partners, can join the webinars at no cost. The fee for non-members to attend a webinar is $79.99.
The NPDA will be promoting the Dealerships that have the most attendees at each live webinar. The NPDA EDGE Leaderboard will feature a list of Dealerships who had the most webinar attendees, as the sessions and topics will target a wide range of management and staff. The EDGE Leaderboard will be found in a variety of public-facing locations, including on social media posts and
