Motofix Group has become the first repairer committed to Thatcham Research’s ecademy enabling all team members to develop their knowledge and awareness of changes in vehicle repair.
Following a rigorous survey of every team member’s knowledge of current processes and methods, Motofix identified an opportunity to create a much wider awareness of modern repair techniques across the business.
Richard Tutt, Motofix Group CEO said, “I felt it was critical that everyone in the business had a good understanding of what was involved in repairing vehicles fitted with the latest advanced technologies, including ADAS and EV.”
The programme will start with a roll out across all eight Motofix Group sites during September. It will enable team members at the sites, as well as the central support team based at the group’s Camberley HQ, to remotely access Thatcham Research training materials, carrying out research, completing questions and recording results. Team members can access any of the learning modules over a period of time.
Chris Hamlett, Motofix Group Learning & Development Manager, said, “The challenge was to source an online education solution for our technical and non-technical staff from one provider. Thatcham Research introduced us to ecademy and we have enjoyed working together to ensure it delivers against all of Motofix Group’s needs.”
“Motofix Group are the first customer to subscribe to this brand new proposition” explained Dean Lander, Head of Repair Sector Services at Thatcham Research. “Having worked with Richard and his team over many years, I’m delighted we have secured this three-year deal to further extend and strengthen our relationship and to deliver our unique ecademy platform as their learning and development tool across the entire Motofix business.”
