ASDC Collaborates With Hero Motocorp For A Comprehensive Two-Wheeler Short Term Training Course

The Automotive Skills Development Council (ASDC) and Hero MotoCorp, have joined hands to develop a comprehensive two-wheeler short term training course - Two-Wheeler Preventive Maintenance & Repair. 

Utilising the content provided by Hero MotoCorp, ASDC will deliver a variety of learning modules and certifications in automotive servicing. Through this program, ASDC will also enhance its capacity and capabilities in curriculum building, along with faculty training, to meet global standards.

The course has been approved by the apex regulator National Council of Vocational Education & Training (NCVET) in the apprenticeship portal. Two-Wheeler Preventive Maintenance & Repair program has been designed for 63 days of theory and practicals at the approved Skill Development Center. This will be followed by 14 days of ‘On the Job Training’ at authorised two-wheeler service centers.  

This is a pioneering initiative taken by Hero MotoCorp, along with ASDC, to develop customised courses including BS-VI technology and other new features of the two-wheeler Industry. 

Commenting on the initiative, Vinod Agarwal, President of ASDC said, “We are extremely happy to partner with Hero MotoCorp, as it will allow us to reach a large number of youths, who can be skilled and subsequently gainfully employed in the industry”. 

Naveen Chauhan, Head of Sales and After Sales, Hero MotoCorp said “With the current technological advancements in the automotive sector, new-age vehicles are more advanced, connected, and smart. Two-Wheeler Preventive Maintenance & Repair program will enable students and professionals to develop relevant skills on these new technologies and become self-reliant, thereby empowering them for a brighter future. The program will focus on new sets of skills and knowledge and lead to proficiency upgrading across the entire value chain.”
