The Group Training Academy offers exclusive monthly live-stream training sessions

June 13, 2019
“The Watch and Win” Bosch Start/Stop Technology Broadcast is scheduled for June 26.

The Group Training Academy is offering access to monthly high-definition (HD) broadcasts covering current and emerging topics and trends in the auto care industry. These pre-recorded productions are aired on specific dates and times to allow the audience to participate in live question and answer sessions with the instructor.

A live-stream broadcast, entitled “Bosch Start/Stop Technology: System Diagnostics” presented by Bob Pattengale, is scheduled for June 26 at 2:00 p.m. EST. As an incentive to watch this informative video, The Group Training Academy will randomly award a $100 gift card each to two members who view the entire broadcast.

“These monthly live-stream broadcasts with Q&A are unique in the aftermarket and are another reason The Group Training Academy is the go-to online training resource in the industry,” said Larry Pavey, CEO of the Automotive Parts Services Group (The Group). “Our original goal was to create an educational, web-based resource to help shops expand technicians’ skill level and grow their businesses. The Group Training Academy exceeds that vision with the addition of live-stream training that covers important topics facing the ever-changing automotive industry.”

The monthly live-stream broadcasts are free to all members of The Group Training Academy. Members receive access to these 12 featured courses, plus five basic essentials courses, a basic membership to the Automotive Management Network, and one ASE Test Prep class of their choice. Courses in this bundle are all premium content designed for professional technicians and/or service writers. Each class comes with a post test and certificate of completion. The HD broadcasts are archived and added to the library for those that may have missed the broadcast.
