NGK Academy is here! Primarily, it is aimed at supplying essential training to your workshop customers; however, the ignition and sensor specialist is keen for you to explore its offering too, as well as share the message with your customers.
The NGK Academy portal includes more than 270 technical training videos across a myriad of technical subjects/components, produced by automotive training experts, Our Virtual Academy (OVA). They have also created a suite of bespoke training videos specific to spark plugs, with further NGK/NTK product focussed training promised in the future.
The spark plug training videos, three of OVA’s core training videos and other existing NGK/NTK training content, will be free to access once users have enrolled on the portal; however, NGK confirmed there will be a charge for accessing the full suite of 270-plus videos.
Encouraging early feedback
Visitors to the recent MECHANEX show “rushed to sign-up for a free trial”, which, ordinarily, would cost £89.99+VAT. NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Marketing Manager, Mark Hallam, said: “Workshop visitors to our stand were eager to learn more about NGK Academy and to take up the offer with no obligation to buy.
“Automotive technology is changing rapidly, and this initiative will help technicians deal with the complex challenges that they face. Trainee technicians were especially keen to discover how they could learn new skills, which will hopefully enable them to have a successful career in the automotive industry for many years.”
NGK Academy is available online 24/7, 365 days of the year, meaning training can be undertaken during downtime.
