Semantica Academy: technical training joins the WDB products

A training platform for vehicle technicians: courses pitched at the level of those attending, in the classroom, online and by webinar.

Technical data is useful to those who have the skills to interpret it. That is why WDB is adding to its services the platform Semantica Academy: a tool through which WDB delivers in-depth training on the new technologies found on the most recent vehicles.

Courses pitched at the participants' level

Trainers are selected individually and courses are divided according to the level of competence of those attending.

A deliberate choice to overcome one of the most common problems in technical training: the mixed classroom, where someone with twenty years of experience risks getting bored, while a beginner can struggle to keep up with the course.

Training on the vehicle, not only in the classroom: courses are divided by the participants' level of competence.

The stated aim is to hold together two things that usually rule each other out — clarity and depth: courses that can be followed, but with real technical content, kept current on the latest technologies, from electrification to driver assistance systems.

A complete training offering that combines online courses, classroom sessions and free webinars to support the professional growth of every technician.

The right course, in the right area

Inside the platform, courses are sorted by category and by geographic area. On registering you set your preferences, and the system tells you automatically when a course you care about opens near you. Access and alerts cost nothing: you pay only for the course you decide to attend.

If the course does not exist, you can ask for it

When a subject is missing, the workshop can propose it from the platform: WDB then finds the right trainer and arranges it.

What changes for networks and distributors

For those responsible for running a network, training is the decisive factor in overall operational efficiency. A database used at thirty per cent of its potential costs the same as one used at a hundred per cent, but delivers only a third of the benefit. What separates the two situations is not the software, but the training of the person who uses it every day.

Semantica Academy therefore follows the same logic as the rest of the range: a single supplier for technical data, diagnosis and training, with the option of planning consistent programmes across every workshop in a group.

Semantica Academy courses are held in Italian and in Italy. For training needs in other markets, write to us: we look at each case individually.

Access to the course area is granted on free registration with Axitecnica, the portal through which a workshop can make use of every service the group offers.
