IARA Website Improves Online Member Management

The International Automotive Remarketers Alliance’s (IARA) new website has integrated software that is designed to improve online membership management.

Association Management Software (AMS) is designed to help manage alliance membership, improve communication within the organization, streamline the online education process, and improve other website functionalities, according to the alliance.

The alliance recently launched the new website, IARA.BIZ, which now allows all sections of the website to be accessible with a single sign-in password.

The IARA board commissioned IARA Executive Director Tony Long and members of the alliance’s Technology Committee to seek an AMS solution, which it found in MemberLeap, a product by Vieth Consulting. The software is ranked as the No. 1 top mid-range association management software solution by software review company Capterra, according to the IARA.

The software is also designed to help streamline the processes for IARA’s CAR Certification program, the alliance’s remarketing certification program. The software will now provide student enrollment, course delivery, automated deadline reminders, and proctored online testing. Administrators and students will also be able to track course progress, print certificates, and maintain records. 

The new website also features a registration link for the IARA-Northwood University remarketing course, which is primarily used by members as a training resource for new hires or those who have recently transferred to the remarketing segment of the industry.
