Comprehensive training offer at the beginning of 2023
“The virtual e-training sessions of the BILSTEIN Academy are a real success story. They are well received by workshops and wholesalers”, says a pleased Rainer Popiol, head of BILSTEIN Academy. The training centre of the renowned German suspension manufacturer wants to give its B2B customers an advantage in the particularly highly competitive aftermarket sector with free training courses.
The number of participants in the virtual training, which was launched at the beginning of 2021 as an alternative to classroom training, is already approaching the 5,000 mark. We will continue with six attractive online courses early in 2023.
Active, passive and air spring systems will be covered as well as interesting additional business for the workshop, suspension diagnosis or the topic of tuning. It starts on 10 January with the virtual e-training course “Camper shock absorbers: Areas of application, customer expectations, product range, structure and function, installation”.
This attractive course offering is aimed specifically at workshops that want to benefit from the camper boom. In line with this, BILSTEIN also has exciting new products in its range in the form of the B6 Camper and B6 Camper Advanced shock absorber series.
The online courses, which will be conducted live by a trainer, will each last approximately one hour. After the training, all graduates will be sent a high-quality printed certificate from BILSTEIN. Please find more information and registration directly at the following link: Trainings & courses - BILSTEIN workshop.
