Schaeffler REPXPERT popular online<br />
‘Tea-break Training’ returns in March<br />
Yet again emphasising the depth and diversity of the sectorleading<br />
training it offers the independent aftermarket,<br />
the Schaeffler REPXPERT team will be back in front of the<br />
cameras to deliver its latest Zoom-based ‘Tea-break Training’<br />
over two sessions on Wednesday 1st March 2023 at 12:30 and<br />
18:30.<br />
<strong>The</strong> familiar faces of Simon Cooper and Alistair Mason will<br />
be joined by other members of the REPXPERT team to bring<br />
their combined knowledge and expertise to information<br />
hungry technicians, this time focusing on the subject of ‘Future<br />
Technology’ and the opportunities it presents to forward looking<br />
independent workshops.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> mission of Schaeffler’s REPXPERT programme is to<br />
empower independent aftermarket professionals,” said<br />
Schaeffler Technical Manager, Alistair Mason, “which includes<br />
informing them about future products, systems and technologies<br />
that are poised to enter independent workshops in the next few<br />
years.<br />
“Technologies such as hybridisation and electrification are<br />
really in the spotlight at the moment, so it’s important for us<br />
to demonstrate the central role that Schaeffler is playing in<br />
these developments. As the work we are doing with vehicle<br />
manufacturers at original equipment level filters down to the<br />
aftermarket, it will impact the guys servicing and repairing<br />
vehicles fitted with what we are currently calling ‘future<br />
technology’, but for us it has been years in the making.”<br />
Another topic covered in the sessions will be Schaeffler’s<br />
OneCode label system, which features a unique QR code on<br />
the packaging of all future Schaeffler products that enables<br />
technicians to get direct access to important technical<br />
information from their smartphone.<br />
“One simple scan of the OneCode provides instant digital<br />
access to all the usual REPXPERT product and technical<br />
information, including detailed installation instructions and<br />
specifications, whilst instantly collecting REPXPERT bonus points<br />
for members to redeem against workshop clothing, tools and<br />
consumables in the bonus shop,’ Mason continued.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> scan also checks the authenticity of the product,<br />
providing an additional security measure for both parts suppliers<br />
and workshops, another important tool for us to highlight during<br />
the training session.”<br />
