Robert Bosch has added Bosch 2D Virtual Garage, an interactive training and skills assessment resource, to its Bosch Online Learning Portal. 
In the Bosch 2D Virtual Garage, participants working with common diagnostic tools typically found in a standard repair shop are faced with a specific fault and will attempt to diagnose the issue on a virtual vehicle. According to Bosch, specific parts can be selected on a schematic board, the diagnostic data associated with that part can be reviewed, and the participant can then decide which part is the source of the fault.
Once the diagnosis phase is complete, parts can be installed and a virtual road test can be given.
“Providing resources such as the Bosch Virtual Garage helps technicians assess and improve their skills and in turn, more efficiently and accurately service their customers’ vehicles in the shop,” said Bob Pattengale, manage of training and hotline at Bosch Automotive Aftermarket North America. “Through the Bosch Online Learning Portal, an expansive collection of content is conveniently accessible on demand 24/7/365 for those looking to improve their knowledge and skills.”
The Bosch 2D Virtual Garage Fault One scenario is currently available at no charge. Additional scenarios will be added in future months. Technicians and vocational students can access Virtual Garage now at AviOnDemand.com/Bosch-Virtual-Garage.
