G Jerry Truglia is well known for his automotive training through his company ATTS:  Automotive Technician Training Services, where he covers topics ranging from hybrid vehicles, electricity, to Heavy Duty Truck repair. G is also a very proud founding member of the non-for profit Technician Service Training group (TST).  TST is a 501(c)(3) educational not-for-profit and is devoted to the following since its inception. The purpose of TST is:

Keeping our fellow technicians up to date with the latest technology.
Providing quality training seminars and educational materials at a reasonable price.
Delivering practical, useful repair information.
Keeping technicians informed of industry trends.
Increasing consumer awareness of our skills and professionalism

In this episode G will let you know what the hot training topics are going to be in the near future and what he sees is a shift in the way learning happens. When I asked him about finding good techs, he was very pointed and concerned about this most important industry topic.

This very comprehensive and enlightening episode exposed the passion G has about training and the future of the industry. Since he’s been at the training game for years I’m not surprised that you’ve not been to one of this training seminars, seen one of his you tube video’s or been to one of his webcasts.

He will let you know what the hot training topics are going to be in the near future and what he sees is a shift in the way learning happens. When you hear the sound bite in the beginning of this episode he sums it up by saying ‘If You Don’t Update You Evaporate’. Wow, no wiser words spoken in the face of rapid technology changes every day.
