F&I School

First and foremost, ADI is an F&I School dedicated to the education of talented individuals interested in embarking upon or advancing their careers in automotive dealerships, lending institutions and related fields.

Graduates of our F&I School are trained to present to customers all products normally offered in dealership F&I offices, including extended service contracts, anti-theft devices, GAP protection and loan programs for prime and non-prime credit consumers. They are also trained on products designed to protect the resale value of the vehicle, including safeguard paint, fabrics and interiors.

In addition to learning how to present a loan package along with finance products, students are trained to obtain accurate credit applications, merge multiple credit reports and analyze the results to efficiently structure loan packages in accordance with specific lender guidelines. Students learn all appropriate state DMV and federal laws and regulations pertaining to dealership Finance Departments. They learn how to make proper oral and written disclosures and to obtain all finance document signatures as required by law. They learn to place indirect consumer auto loans with financial institutions, and to prepare and audit loan packages for funding.

As an in-depth F&I School, ADI also instructs students in assisting customers with non-prime credit, including those who have had bankruptcies, charge-offs, foreclosures, judgments and repossessions. In addition, they learn how to apply F&I protocols and practices to specialty dealerships, such as those devoted to motorcycles, recreational vehicles, and marine/watersports vehicles.

The Automotive Dealership Institute is the brainchild of Alan Algan, Arzu Algan and the late Keith Tuber. The three principal officers have been in the F&I school business for a collective 30-plus years, and have enrolled, trained and placed thousands of individuals who have gone on to achieve successful careers in the automotive industry. After honing their training program in Southern California, the largest retail automotive market in the world, they saw a distinct need for such education in Arizona. ADI opened its doors in 2005, raising the standards of excellence for an F&I school.
