To fulfil its objective of providing expert training to technicians<br />
keen to expand their knowledge, DENSO is using every tool at is<br />
disposal, from recorded webinars and real-time presentations via<br />
the Internet, to live events with face-to-face engagement<br />
“Training the technicians responsible for vehicle repair<br />
and service is a very important issue,” explained DENSO’s<br />
Fatiha Laauich, “and one that DENSO has long placed a high<br />
priority upon.<br />
“Although our e-Learning channel remains an important<br />
tool and <strong>The</strong> League of True Mechanics (LOTM) competition<br />
an ongoing opportunity for technicians to increase<br />
their knowledge while also being able to win rewards, as<br />
restrictions continue to ease, face-to-face training again<br />
becomes a reality, which is why we were eager and excited<br />
to join several other original equipment manufacturers at<br />
the AutoInform LIVE event in Wolverhampton on 6th & 7th<br />
November.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> event was a great success as our two technical<br />
experts, Richard Groot and Steve Turner, engaged with<br />
many of the 200 attendees to discuss the many products in<br />
the DENSO range. Richard then held an air conditioning (AC)<br />
seminar with 50 delegates during which he expanded on the<br />
service, repair and troubleshooting aspects of the complex,<br />
but increasingly relevant, subject.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> depth and breadth of DENSO’s training offering was<br />
also demonstrated the previous week when DENSO and<br />
Schaeffler jointly shared a live Zoom training session to<br />
address the importance of FEAD (front end auxiliary drive)<br />
system maintenance. This is an essential message and the<br />
popular format gave Richard a great platform to explain<br />
the different technologies used in the design of the pulleys<br />
used for the alternators and AC compressors driven by<br />
the system and stress the importance of checking their<br />
condition and to highlight what problems can typically<br />
occur.<br />
“As ongoing access to up-to-date training remains vital,<br />
all our previous webinars, current training modules and<br />
most recent ‘DENSO in the Workshop’ AC oil condition<br />
assessment video, are available online at: https://www.<br />
denso-technic.com/uk/ where technicians can also still sign<br />
up to the LOTM competition and be in with the chance to<br />
win some fabulous prizes.”<br />
