We know that finding – let alone retaining – exceptional technicians is more challenging than ever. The AEP program was created to mitigate that problem by giving you the chance to groom the next generation of Audi technicians while simultaneously strengthening your service team. Knowing that both needs and culture can differ from one dealership to the next, the AEP allows you to choose the students you want to sponsor, then equips them with skills that will make them an immediate and enduring asset to your business.
In just 18 months, you’ll have an Expert Level Audi-Certified Technician who not only understands the mechanisms for driving our vehicles, but who is also deeply committed to the brand and, most importantly, to the success of your dealership.
Onboarding new employees can be costly – especially when they don’t stick around. The AEP program helps you hire and retain certified technicians and even offers a two-year training fee suspension in return for your participation. That means you can grow your community of technicians and increase your profitability at the same time.
Dealerships who participate in the AEP program will have the full support of the brand behind them. We provide all training resources as well as Audi-specific service and maintenance skills.
Reduced repair time. Increased customer satisfaction. Customized service for your dealership specifications. These are only a few of the benefits dealers have seen from their participation in the Audi Education Partnership program.
