Running a successful dealership doesn't stop once you receive your California dealer license. Staying current with California DMV regulations, compliance requirements, and industry best practices is essential to protecting your business and serving your customers.

As a California Dealer Education Instructor, I've worked with new and experienced dealers who have questions about:
  • DMV compliance and audits
  • Required dealership forms
  • Advertising regulations
  • Recordkeeping requirements
  • Dealer renewals
  • Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) best practices
  • Vehicle documentation
  • Customer disclosures
  • Operational compliance
To help California dealers stay informed, we've developed a Continuing Dealer Education Course that focuses on practical, real-world information you can apply immediately to your dealership.

The course is designed for:
  • Independent dealers
  • Wholesale dealers
  • New dealer owners
  • Established dealerships
  • Dealership managers
Our goal is simple: help dealers reduce compliance risks, improve operations, and stay current with California regulations.
I'd also love to hear from the DealerRefresh community:
What dealership compliance topic causes you the biggest headache?
  • DMV audits?
  • Advertising compliance?
  • Paperwork?
  • BHPH?
  • Dealer forms?
  • Something else?
I'm always looking for topics to include in future training and resources.
