Staying ahead in the automotive industry requires continuous learning and the right tools to navigate evolving challenges. Whether you thrive in an interactive classroom setting or prefer the flexibility of virtual training, AIAG’s expert-led courses equip you with the skills and insights needed to excel.

The 2025 AIAG Quality Summit is your opportunity to shape the conversation and drive innovation in automotive quality! Taking place October 1-2, 2025, at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Michigan, this premier event brings together industry leaders, visionaries, and quality professionals to tackle today’s biggest challenges and opportunities in automotive quality.

The automotive and manufacturing industries are constantly evolving, with new challenges emerging in trade, sustainability, and technology. Staying ahead requires a proactive approach—and there’s no better place to gain the latest insights than the AIAG Supply Chain Conference!

Andrew Farrelly, CEO and co-founder of CT Strategies, has devoted most of his career to strengthening U.S. security interests, serving as director of targeting programs for the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and most recently as CBP’s chief of staff for the deputy commissioner. As a lead-up to his March 19, 2025, AIAG webinar “Navigating Cross-Border Logistics: AEO and CTPAT Updates and Compliance Strategies,” Farrelly gives some valuable insights into border and trade challenges.

With shifting trade policies and increasing supply chain pressures, staying ahead in today’s automotive industry requires agility and informed decision-making. That’s why AIAG is committed to providing essential insights, training, and resources to help you navigate regulatory complexities, mitigate risks, and keep your supply chain moving smoothly.

Need to navigate growing carbon disclosure requirements at the part/material, manufacturing site, and company level? Kicking off a new three-part virtual workshop series on carbon, our complimentary March 25 “Carbon Inventory Management” session provides essential information for automotive suppliers—especially those in Tier 1 and further down the supply chain who serve multiple industries and may not have a dedicated carbon expert on their team.

Along with our always-popular golf outing in early June, Spring 2025 brings two "must-attend" AIAG events designed to tackle critical industry challenges: a new conference in mid-May addressing forced labor due diligence and human rights, and our annual Supply Chain Conference (mid-June) exploring shared challenges for ICE and electric vehicles. 

Whether you're looking to stay ahead of evolving regulations, streamline reporting processes, or connect with top industry leaders, these events offer the knowledge and networking you need to drive meaningful progress. Read more below, and be sure to snag a spot ASAP to join us this spring!
