How GIADA helps
Wherever your dealership is, we've got your back
From your first class to your next renewal, GIADA handles the paperwork, the training and the savings so you can sell cars.

Staying licensed
Renew without the scramble
Complete your 6 required CE hours online on your schedule, and let the GIADA office file your license renewal for you.
Growing your business
Save money every month
Auction fee coupons, insurance and bond discounts, dealer software savings and a statewide network of dealers who've been there.
Education
Upcoming classes
Pre-license seminars and continuing education, taught by GIADA, a Board-approved provider.
