Workshop Structure
Programs include workshops for either aftermarket managers or for aftermarket teams. Each covers critical skills to identify and deliver value to the customer.
Workshops build on each other so once teams have completed their first workshop, they can immediately put new skills into practice. And when ready, the next workshop delivers additional skills for even greater returns.
Each level is given in one 8-hour workshop – on-site or via live webinar. Each includes an interactive pre and post webinar to ensure participants are armed for success at the workshop and, after, have the opportunity to troubleshoot any implementation issues they encounter.
