Enhance Training at Your Shop

Training employees in any organization is important, and talent development in an automotive or fleet service shop is no different. It ensures that your team has the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their job duties effectively and safely. This leads to better quality repairs, increased customer satisfaction, and a reduction in mistakes and inefficiencies. Providing training also helps to retain top talent and keep them motivated. Technicians and service advisors who feel valued and supported by their employer are more likely to be engaged and committed to their work.

The automotive industry has traditionally focused on infrequent training events that take teams out of their day-to-day to maintain and learn new skills. Today’s Class challenges the status quo by providing a solution powered by data and AI to keep your team engaged while optimizing performance daily.

Consistent training helps your business stay up-to-date with the latest technology and techniques to improve your competitiveness and reputation in the market. Investing in your employees is investing in your business. Learn how Today’s Class makes this easy to do in 3 - 5 minutes a day.

Training for Your
Independent Repair Shop

Every team member serves a critical role in the success of your shop.  As an owner, if you're not investing in developing their talent, your shop isn't going to run at peak performance.

Have peace of mind that your team is working in the safest manner possible by monitoring everyone's knowledge and improvement in safety basics and best practices.

Save time and costs by pre-screening new job candidates and invest in your existing team by providing them with the tools and training they need to grow.

No more guesswork. Training results don't have to be difficult to measure. With the data Today’s Class develops, owners know the ROI of their training spend in real dollars contributed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Instructor-led and hands-on training will always be a critical piece of the puzzle.  Today's Class will help you to determine who needs that extra level of training and in which areas.  Our data will help you target additional investments in training to ensure your money is spent wisely.

Absolutely.  Today's Class will identify the weaknesses for each learner and work to close those gaps.  Next, our use of question-based learning will help your team develop the "muscle memory" necessary to answer challenging questions (this often helps address test anxiety). Lastly, you will have enough data about your team to know who is ready for an ASE exam...and who isn't.  This allows you to set up each employee for success.

Our artificial intelligence will do the heavy lifting when it comes to pushing the right training to the right person at the right time. Your primary job will be to hold your team accountable for training consistently.  Most shop owners invest 5 - 10 minutes per day ensuring their team is training and reviewing the data to inform business decisions.

In terms of setup, planning, and configuration, you will have access to a dedicated Account Manager from Today's Class to handle those details.  We'll be there to support you.

Today's Class offers training for technicians, service advisors, and managers.  Even your most experienced employees will have gaps in their knowledge.  Our platform will identify those gaps and close them in only 3 - 5 minutes per day.

Using Today’s Class Training led to a culture change within my shop. Learning and becoming a better technician is now a common topic of conversation.

The program is user friendly and easy to implement from a shop owner point of view.  I spend 10 minutes a day, as well as an additional hour per month administering the program.  I would highly recommend Today’s Class Training to any shop owner who is looking to inject some training into their shop's culture.

My young guys love it because it allows them access to 24/7 training. It is such a nice talking point in one-on-one conversation, and I also love that I can see training results and problem areas allowing me another conversation point when needed.

My seasoned guys love the multiple levels of training. They want to get to level 4 just to prove what they got! Thanks for a great product at a reasonable price!!
