American Recovery Association Selected For Exclusive Partnership with Bridgecrest

ARA announces partnership with Bridgecrest on training, vendor vetting

Irving, Texas, March 16, 2018 – The American Recovery Association (ARA), the world’s largest association of recovery and remarketing professionals, is excited to announce a new partnership with Bridgecrest. As part of this agreement, ARA will assist Bridgecrest in their vendor vetting, training and monitoring program.

“We are honored to be chosen as the exclusive training program by Bridgecrest and are happy to help reduce the cost burden on vendors,” said Dave Kennedy, President of ARA. “We still believe repossessors should only have to choose one training service, but until our compliance program is accepted by everyone, we are determined to provide the best value.”

ARA seeks to be a viable industry solution to the high cost of vendor training. This partnership is a major benefit to Bridgecrest’s current vendor network, as it significantly reduces the financial burden placed upon them.
