Mastermind Academy offers three training routes:

• A Courses page with learning paths covering the fundamentals and tactical ways to use Mastermind.
• A Best Practices page that offers short articles, micro-learning how-to videos about specific Mastermind features, and downloadable scripts & templates for users to leverage.
• A Dealer Resource page, which keeps dealer partners updated on the company's latest offerings and events.

"We've utilized Mastermind Academy as part of our onboarding process for the last few months, and this new resource is easy to understand, engaging and effective," said Devin Bodily, Internet sales director at The All New Joe Myers Ford in Houston, Texas. "With the inclusion of assistance from our dedicated dealer relations manager, our sales team's follow through and presentation of the platform is much more effective."
