Developing the “Feel”
We use a state-of-the-art PDR training platform that ensures consistency in the training process to properly develop the “FEEL” of PDR. We use consistent metal throughout the training period to develop a baseline “FEEL” for the tools. The training is structured so that the student starts in the training environment, practicing on test panels and transitions to real automotive panels during training.
Learn-Do-Perfect System
Our progressive learning system rapidly advances student skills. The goal is to make a repair that is “Clean & Unseen.” In order to achieve this level of quality within the training environment, the learn-do-perfect system connects head knowledge to muscle memory, training the body to perform perfect repairs. By using this system, proper physical coordination is achieved, leading to the professional repairs necessary in a real-world environment.
