Nissens Automotive has announced that its knowledge sharing platform, NTC, is entering a new era with the introduction of an online self-learning platform.

The Nissens Training Concept is already popular with distributors and their customers, with more than 4,000 mechanics and automotive system operators participating in the live climate system training classes worldwide.

Executive Vice President for Nissens Automotive, Klavs T. Pedersen, commented, “We cannot overestimate the advantages and effects generated by the Nissens Training Concept and the climate system education that we launched in 2015. Our primary aim was to broaden understanding of the AC system complexity and the need for proper installation procedures. Now, we have decided to make another step, strongly believing that it is the right timing to offer even more education to the market.”

The launch of the online NTC platform will also cover turbochargers, which were a recent addition to the Nissens range. Indeed, one of the first online courses is about the turbocharging fundamentals as well as sharing expertise in car and system trouble-shooting and turbo installation process.

Jan Zieleskiewicz, Marketing Manager at Nissens Automotive, explains more about the courses, “Users can join the learning session virtually from any point on the globe and do it 24/7. The courses can be played on computers and most mobile devices. We have packed a lot of interactivity to help the audience when learning about new, advanced materials such as turbos. Professional narration and planned learning paths ensure that the students learn exactly what is relevant. Finally, every student can be certified and it all runs electronically without any waiting time on issuing the official document signed by Nissens. This development of the NTC platform offers our customers more freedom and flexibility.” He added, “We also plan to create a virtual community of automotive system experts who can communicate with each other.”

Jan also points out that live training will continue. He says, “Both platforms are ways of Delivering the Difference to our customers in the aftermarket, continuing to share high quality knowledge and improving technical understanding of products and installation procedures. We look forward to sharing the possibilities with our customers.”

From February and throughout March, visitors can sign up for free courses at www.nissens.com/freetraining
