In announcing these appointments, Allen Pennebaker, 2016 Chair of the NASTF Board of Directors, said “The various NASTF committees are where the work gets done and we are fortunate to have such a high quality of leadership again in 2016. Thank you to all our co-chairs for volunteering their time for NASTF and the industry.”
Each of the six NASTF committees is directed to meet by conference call once each quarter and committee members have been notified of that schedule. That meeting schedule is posted publicly to the NASTF events calendar (www.nastf.org/events) and to each of the committee webpages (www.nastf.org/committees), as well.
NASTF was established in 2000 to identify, communicate and resolve gaps in the availability and accessibility of automotive service information, service training, diagnostic tools, and equipment for the benefit of automotive service professionals and their customers. NASTF was incorporated in 2006 as a 501(c)(6) not-for-profit organization. Additional details can be found at www.nastf.org.
