Trusted for automotive learning that matters.

IAS works where training is operationally important: product launches, technical readiness, aftersales performance, safety, academy operations and dealer network support.

Five situations that bring clients to IAS.

The cases on this page differ in brand, market and technology, but they start from the same handful of problems. Find the one that sounds like yours, then read how we handled it.

01

Complex launches

For OEMs and importers that need the network ready for new products, technologies or services.

02

Multi-market delivery

For organizations that need consistency across languages, regions and dealer realities.

03

Subject matter credibility

For topics where content accuracy and field experience matter.

04

Didactic design

For projects where expert content must become understandable and trainable.

05

Execution capability

For clients who need strategy, design, development, trainers, localization and operations connected.

No invented percentages. Credibility over sexy but unproven claims.

What the work looks like, without the invented numbers.

Most training case studies open with a percentage. A satisfaction score, an uplift, a completion rate. Almost none of them survive a serious question about how the number was measured, over what period, against what baseline.

We publish the shape of the work instead: what the client needed people to be able to do, what we decoded, what we designed, and how it was delivered across markets. Where a client has validated a result and agreed to share it, we name it. Where they have not, we describe the engagement and leave the number out.

The pattern below repeats across almost every programme we run. A capability gap that nobody had written down clearly, expert content that was accurate but untrainable, and a network spread across languages and maturity levels that made a single generic answer impossible.

Pattern A

Launch readiness for a network that has never sold this before

National & international
Services involved
  • Product training
  • Technical training
  • Sales training
  • Training facilities

The situation. A new powertrain, a new segment or a new brand enters the market. The product documentation is complete and the launch date is fixed, but the people who have to explain and service the vehicle have no reference point for it.

What IAS did. We decode what a salesperson, advisor or technician must be able to do on day one, strip the technical documentation down to what supports those tasks, and build a programme that puts people in front of the vehicle early and often. Trainers are briefed and calibrated before the first wave.

What changed. The network arrives at launch able to hold the conversation and do the work, rather than reading from a deck. Support questions shift from basic orientation to genuine edge cases.

What we learned
  • Start from the day-one task, not from the product deck. What people must do decides what they must know.
  • Time with the actual vehicle beats slides. Book the car before you book the room.
  • Calibrate trainers before wave one, or every market invents its own version of the launch story.
