Autodata presents integrated technical training

Changes in the automotive industry are something completely everyday. This is most evident in practice in the constantly changing technology introduced by manufacturers. If workshops want to remain competitive, they must actively follow such technological changes and apply the technology in practice.

Who remembers the 1970s, when stricter emissions controls were introduced? Or the 1980s, the era of computer-controlled engine operation? Then, in the late 1990s, we witnessed the growing influence of environmental awareness with the introduction of hybrid drive systems.

Today, technological changes are once again in sight…

A coordinated transition to electric vehicles, efforts to increase driver assistance, connected cars, self-driving concepts – the list seems endless. The point is that change is constant, the question is how we will embrace it, adapt to it, and improve ourselves to achieve success.
To mark 50 years of supporting automotive workshops, Autodata is launching an upgrade to its technical training, a significant step towards even greater efficiency in challenging times of constant technical change. Autodata is considered the leading provider of technical data for vehicle servicing, maintenance and diagnostics. All technical data on vehicles, obtained directly from manufacturers, is comprehensive and prepared in a structured format, allowing repairers and technical consultants to easily use and quickly access the information they need in their work.

Autodata Technical Training contains over 350 online videos with content created for technical training

Other training topics covered include hybrid and electric vehicles, mastering vehicle start-up systems, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Currently, the most popular training topics include understanding plug-in hybrids, an introduction to advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), braking system basics, automatic transmission operation, and best practices for mounting tires.

Two key benefits of accessing Autodata technical training:

Easy video search:
Quick access to video content to help diagnose vehicle problems even faster. So you can easily access technical training from the workshop with just one click.

On-demand training content:
Access a library of on-demand training content with relevant information on what’s new and refresh your knowledge on important topics you may have forgotten.

Using the Autodata app can speed up vehicle servicing and repairs in your workshop thanks to its intuitive structure with no training required and access to technical information for 99% of all vehicles on the road.

There’s no heavy content or theory to digest. Most Autodata videos are under 10 minutes long, led by industry experts, featuring real vehicles and detailed 3D animations. Each video is designed to be used when and where you need it – even on the vehicle you’re currently working on.

“Supporting your team”

Autodata subscribers now have access to the most cost-effective way to educate and update their employees, providing a convenient alternative to expensive off-site technical training.
This reduces training costs, travel and time spent away from the workplace. Workshop workers can simply log into the Autodata system and access training content that meets their needs, not only learning about new technology, but also providing them with the foundational content to refresh their understanding of vehicle technology.

“Expertise on demand”

On-demand diagnostic video content is an effective reference tool that allows mechanics to verify their repairs in real time. An ever-growing collection of training videos designed by experts for experts can be used to reduce disruption and delays and increase the productivity and advancement of workers in mechanical workshops.
