FULLERTON, Calif. Yokohama Tire Corp. (YTC) will debut its new EXCEED online training program for commercial dealers at the Mid-America Trucking Show (MATS) booth No. 14124 on March 27 in Louisville, Ky.
EXCEED, which stands for “Excellence Through Certification and Education," is already available for YTC’s consumer tire dealers.
“EXCEED has been such a strong training component and we wanted to extend the tool even further to our commercial dealers,” said Alan Holtschneider, YTC senior manager, marketing communications. “This year at MATS, our commercial EXCEED program will be up and ready at our booth for a test drive and will be available for all dealers to use beginning April 1.”
Through a series of interactive training modules, users can learn commercial tire basics on everything from steer and all-position to on-and-off highway tires. The structure of the program also is designed for dealers to prioritize training that is most relevant for their markets.
