Point S adds bespoke ADAS course to UK training programme

Point S Tyre & Autocare has delivered its first IMI Level 2 Award in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Calibration (610/1338/9) training session. Exclusive to Point S members, the first session of the new course was delivered to technicians from within the network at the Hella Training Academy in Banbury, Oxfordshire. Providing delegates with knowledge of the operating principles, components, and service requirements for ADAS, Point S will continue to offer its members the course in 2024.

The course is designed to enable the network’s technicians to diagnose and calibrate ADAS more accurately and efficiently, incorporating the use of live data from calibration equipment and diagnostic equipment.

Point S states an aim of becoming the largest qualified and certified European network for Electric Vehicle (EV) maintenance by 2026, and to support this goal it is “building a portfolio of training courses geared towards futureproofing the skillset of its technicians.” In June this year, Point S delivered its inaugural bespoke training course, the Air Conditioning Service and Maintenance Level 3 Award, and says this proved a popular hit with members.

Futureproofing businesses & staff

“Having delivered our very first bespoke training course to our network earlier this year, it was essential that we kept the momentum going. That is exactly what we have achieved with our brand-new ADAS course,” says Jon Taylor, Point S UK and European training manager. “As ADAS calibration becomes more frequent in the automotive aftermarket, we are delighted to provide Point S technicians with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to work with these complicated systems. This class-leading course enables our members to not only futureproof their businesses, but the people within them.”
