Bosch Training Courses 
Everyone within the motor trade accepts that to survive and prosper in the Hi-tec world of vehicle repairs, quality training is essential. The problem has been that courses are not structured, varying in quality and are often held in a hotel room in London or the Midlands.
We have put together a partnership with Bosch to offer you a structured programme of high quality training courses delivered by the recognised world leaders “Bosch” and held in our local purpose-designed training room at our Head Office in Taunton.
You can select an individual course or follow the Bosch technical programme culminating in an ATA certificate and recognition of your skills.
