Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems has announced the dates of its on-site training courses for November.
The company's Air Brake training course will be held twice in the month, from Nov. 12-14, and Nov. 19-21. Both courses will be held at Bendix's Sparks, Nev., distribution center. A virtual class also will be held Dec. 3-5.
Bendix says its in-person and virtual training opportunities for fleet technicians, owner-operators and others enable attendees to enhance the skills necessary for keeping vehicles on the road and in safe operating condition.
“Technical training is more important than ever – at Bendix, we hear this time and again in conversations with fleets across North America,” says Al Rollison, Bendix interim senior director, fleet and aftermarket sales and service. “Technicians operate in a fast-changing commercial vehicle environment, where safety components advance rapidly. The pressure is intense for carriers to maintain overall safety, performance, and uptime – while striving to lower their total cost of ownership. It’s in this landscape that Bendix maintains its decades-long dedication to providing comprehensive, convenient training.”

Registration is open for the complete schedule of both courses, shown below. A member of the Bendix Tech Training Team conducts every class. The training team is led by a Master-level, ASE-certified technical trainer, the company says.
Because of the quantity and complexity of the products covered, Bendix says it highly recommends that each student complete the three-day Air Brake Training course or, at a minimum, the online air brake training at brake-school.com before taking the Advanced Technology Training class.
Per-person enrollment costs are $475 USD for Air Brake Training and $375 USD for the virtual class. Enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis, and class size is limited. Registration may be completed online; by phone at 1-800-AIR-BRAKE (1-800-247-2725), option 3; by email at [email protected]; or via fax (216-651-3261).
