NEXUS will be helping its members to “dive deep” into a digitalized aftermarket of the future when it hosts more than two weeks of virtual training events, which are expected to attract delegates from around the globe.

Run through the alliance’s N! Academy, the event will run from June 15 to July 1, and is being held in conjunction with N! selected suppliers Bosch, MANN+HUMMEL, SKF, Valeo and ZF.

The digital training sessions are for senior managers through to workshop technicians and are aimed at helping their businesses be even more competitive in an increasingly digitalized aftermarket.

This event, as part of the global and annual N! Academy program consists of:

• ‘Future Talks,’ dedicated to N! Members’ executives and directors, which will focus on the evolving means of mobility and the implication for the automotive aftermarket, including sustainability and new mobility trends and it will provide an overview of the automotive aftermarket business opportunity in the era of digital transformation, and

• ‘Digital Training Event,’ dedicated to N! Members’ technical coordinators, which will focus on product management and development to better understand how to coordinate the relationship between the workshop and the distributor.

There also will be an opportunity to introduce the new N! Academy digital platform, which will be officially launched by the end of the month. Webinars, videos, live events and other contents will be available in the platform and will help the acceleration of the NEXUS Academy program around the globe.

Florian Precigout, N! Service and Concept Director said: “This N! Academy initiative is aligned with our global N! Academy strategy of digitalization. Our partners are engaged in the transformation of the automotive industry in a more connected and digitalized business and our commitment is to help N! members and their workshops to keep pace and be highly competitive in the market.”
