Mechanicsville, Virginia, June 26, 2026 – The Society of Collision Repair Specialists (SCRS) has established an ADAS Repair Division, along with appointments to the inaugural Governing Council. This marks a significant step in providing focused representation, education, and advocacy for the expanding community of diagnostics, calibration, and advanced driver assistance systems repair professionals across North America.

SCRS approved the creation of the ADAS Repair Division in 2025 in response to direct requests from ADAS repair specialists and supporting businesses for a structured platform to address educational gaps, information needs, and a lack of dedicated advocacy for their sector. The Division operates within SCRS and is led by a five-member Governing Council elected by the membership.

“The ADAS repair community has voiced a clear need for this infrastructure. A home within a trusted organization that understands the industry and can amplify their voice,” said Aaron Schulenburg, SCRS Executive Director. “The establishment of this Division and its Governing Council represents our commitment to ensuring those independent professionals are not left without a platform for their voices to be heard as vehicle technology and the repair responsibilities that come with it rapidly evolve.”

The ADAS Repair Division’s mission is to educate, inform, and represent ADAS repair specialists. The Governing Council directs the Division’s affairs, oversees programs and events, manages member engagement and funds, and establishes policies, all under the SCRS Board’s oversight.

The Division will organize programs, host events, develop educational content, and engage its membership, while leveraging SCRS’ framework. This structure provides ADAS specialists with a focused professional organization while leveraging the established resources of the nation’s leading collision repair association.
