Gilbert, AZ -- (SBWire) -- 03/28/2016 --Local business owners Thomas and Barbara Kissane received an honorable mention from the United Servicers Association for their attendance at the 2016 Appliance Service Training Institute (ASTI) in Miami, FL from February 15 - 18, 2016.

The ASTI is hosted by the United Servicers Association (USA), and is the largest event of its kind, drawing more than 1,000 appliance repair professionals annually. Participants from across the United States and Canada gathered for appliance repair classes in business management, marketing, and technology.

"The ASTI is one of the most important training events we attend all year," says Tiger Mechanical Co-Founder and CEO, Tom Kissane. "This year we received valuable training on appliance technology and business management, which will help us improve our processes and services." Tom has worked in the appliance repair industry for over 35 years.

During the event, Tiger Mechanical received hands-on technical training from top appliance manufacturers including Sub-Zero, Wolf, Miele, Bosch and Samsung. The technical training included seminars on the latest innovations in refrigeration and appliance technology, making the ASTI one of the most important events for appliance repair technicians nationwide.

"The ASTI is one of the best formats for small business owners to receive training on how to run an appliance repair business," says Tiger Mechanical Co-Founder and Business Manager, Barbara Kissane. "We attend the ASTI to network and share ideas with other appliance repair professionals across the country, which forces us to look closely at our own business practices."

This is Tiger Mechanical's fourth attendance at the ASTI event. In 2015, they received the Most Professional Servicer Award for their business's professionalism and online reputation.
