Electric car repairs on the rise: FTZ Academy equips workshops for the future

FTZ Academy is taking the lead in electric car repairs by expanding its technical support to the country's workshops.

With a focus on specialized training and ongoing support, the academy ensures that mechanics are ready for the green transition, FTZ writes in a press release.

The green transition within the automotive industry is progressing rapidly, and Danish workshops must follow suit. That is why FTZ Akademi has decided to expand its technical support for the repair and service of electric cars. The goal is to better equip the country's mechanics to handle the special demands that electric cars pose.

Head of FTZ Academy , Jesper Svendsen, has no doubt about the importance of this effort. He emphasizes that it is not only about keeping up with developments, but also about ensuring that workshops are ready to meet the increasing demand for sustainable transport solutions.

Electric cars require specialized knowledge and special tools that many workshops do not yet have the experience to use.

To make technical support more accessible, FTZ Academy has integrated a series of courses on electric vehicle technology into their online learning portal. Here, mechanics can update their knowledge and learn the latest techniques that ensure more precise and efficient repairs.

At the same time, the academy offers direct support, where experts are ready to help with specific challenges in everyday life.

Jesper Svendsen sees a clear advantage in combining technical training with ongoing support. This creates a learning environment where workshops not only acquire theoretical knowledge, but also gain practical experience.

The collaboration between training and support must ensure that mechanics feel comfortable accepting electric cars at the workshop.

FTZ is already a market leader in workshop solutions in Denmark and collaborates with large workshop chains such as AutoMester, Din Bilpartner and Hella Service Partner.

With over 1,100 employees and extensive experience in the field, the company is strong in its work to equip the country's workshops for the demands of the future.

Jesper Svendsen emphasizes that all workshops, regardless of experience, can benefit from the new training programs. He sees it as a common task to ensure that the automotive industry in Denmark can handle the increasing number of electric cars rolling out onto the roads.

For workshops that want to future-proof their business, there is good reason to keep an eye on FTZ Academy's offerings. The transition to electric vehicles is already underway, and those who invest in knowledge and support now will be stronger in the competition.
