Meetings
We want your input!
ASCCA West Los Angeles planning sessions are monthly on zoom on the first Tuesdays, 6-7PM. Please contact us for the zoom link so you can give your input and help us plan our meetings and activities.
ASCCA West Los Angeles Chapter meetings are held at least quarterly at member shops and local eateries across West LA, Culver City, Santa Monica, and the surrounding communities. These aren't your average industry gatherings — expect real conversations, good food, and the kind of peer connections that actually move your business forward.
Every Chapter meeting is a chance to hear what's working (and what isn't) straight from fellow shop owners and industry pros who get it. No corporate fluff — just candid talk, shared experience, and a room full of people who take this trade seriously.
Check out our website for upcoming events and details, and view the full ASCCA calendar to see what's happening statewide.
Special Chapter Benefits
Throughout the year, ASCCA Chapter 12 hosts a series of educational and social events designed to strengthen our community, support professional growth, and build lasting relationships within the automotive service industry. Each event provides members with opportunities to connect openly with peers — whether shop owners, technicians, or industry partners — to share ideas, discuss challenges, learn best practices, and build meaningful professional networks.
All events are conducted in accordance with the ASCCA Code of Conduct, ensuring respectful, inclusive, and collaborative environments that encourage honest conversation and professional development. Our goal is to foster engagement among member shops and their teams while creating a space where authentic relationships can develop and industry solidarity can grow. Together, we strengthen not only individual businesses, but the automotive service profession as a whole.

Special Chapter Messages
West Los Angeles has always been more than a market — it's a community. And Chapter 12 is where that community works.
We're independent shop owners and technicians who've been around long enough to know that the real competition isn't each other — it's the forces that make it harder every year to run an honest, skilled, profitable shop. Regulatory changes. Technician shortages. The complexity of modern vehicles. We tackle all of it together.
Whether you're a longtime member or just checking us out for the first time: there's a seat at the table.
