Nashville, TN – May 9, 2025 — The Mobile Electronics Certified Professional (MECP) program continues to expand the benefits available to certified professionals and participating retailers. From free admission to industry events like the Mobile Electronics Association’s KnowledgeFest to discounts on certification courses and partner tools such as The 12V Dashboard, MECP is focused on delivering value to professionals dedicated to advancing their careers.
MECP professionals have long enjoyed discounted access to Mitchell1 ProDemand through 1sixty8 media. Now, that benefit is expanding to provide technicians certified at the Skilled Installation Technician level or higher a one-time credit of $50 (for quarterly billing) or $100 (for annual billing), making this essential tool even more accessible to those committed to advancing their expertise.
Mitchell1 ProDemand, a comprehensive online service and repair information platform, offers OEM vehicle wiring diagrams, component locations, and labor time estimates making it ideal for creating accurate sales quotes and streamlining diagnostics. Users can search by Year, Make, Model, and Trim, or quickly identify vehicles by scanning the license plate or VIN. A keyword-based search function makes finding relevant information fast and intuitive.
“We’re always looking for ways to bring more value to those who work hard to improve their skills,” said Kris Bulla, owner and president of MECP. “Offering discounts and credits for tools that benefit the technicians and the businesses they work for is an essential part of the value ecosystem we’re building.”
Program Highlights:
- All MECP-certified professionals and Company Admins are eligible for the discounted rate of $139.99/month for ProDemand. This is a savings of $60/month off the standard price. Subscriptions are available with quarterly or annual billing.
- Technicians certified at the Skilled Installation Technician level or higher, or Company Admins who employ technicians certified at the Skilled Installation Technician level or higher, qualify for a one-time credit towards their 1sixty8 media managed ProDemand Subscription:
- $50 for quarterly billing
- $100 for annual billing
The standard discount becomes available automatically in the user’s MECP Profile once MECP certification has been achieved. If they are certified at the Skilled level or higher, or the company they Admin has a Skilled or higher level, an additional button will appear in your MECP profile to claim the credit.
“Knowledgeable technicians mean better outcomes for clients and a healthier business overall,” said Mitch Schaffer, president of 1sixty8 media. “By partnering with MECP, we’re encouraging ongoing education while making it easier for shops to access the tools they rely on, like Mitchell1 ProDemand.”
