BPW TRAINING SEMINARS
BPW Training Seminars
One of the key requisites for ensuring the safe operation of BPW axles and suspensions is maintenance carried out professionally. This is why we have been offering our BPW training seminars for a number of years now. This successful concept has become a real hit, as many vehicle manufacturers, fleet operators, repair stations, parts centres and dealers take advantage of the seminars we offer. Although this really comes as no surprise they can all learn everything they need to know about BPW technology.
We can also tailor the courses to your particular requirements if you prefer. All training normally takes place at BPW Axles in Johannesburg, and once a year in the main centres in South Africa. Training is also scheduled in some of our neighbouring countries.
