2020 might be rapidly drawing to a close, but we’ve still got plenty of virtual courses scheduled throughout November (and December) to help you finish the year strong. Check out the list below to see what’s up next or use our updated Training Calendar to plan your next AIAG Live Virtual Training.

Have you spotted our newest Live Virtual Training options at the AIAG Store? In addition to courses focusing on everything from the Quality Core Tools and IATF 16949:2016 to IMDS and the new USMCA, we’ve now expanded our online offerings to include two additional courses:  Automotive Warranty Management – An Introduction, and Automotive Warranty Assessment Training.

As the industry continues to work toward a full recovery, AIAG has been diligently working to add online, Live Virtual Trainings to meet the needs of the automotive industry. One of these offerings, the AIAG IATF 16949:2016 Supplier Audit Certificate – Renewal, is now available as an online proctored exam.

Times have changed a lot recently, but you can still get the training you need to hit the ground running during the industry recovery – with AIAG’s Live Virtual Training!

Still have money left in the budget for training? Been putting off a class you need to take? It’s not too late! AIAG offers classes through mid-December -- and we're back at it again in mid-January 2019.

No department is more aware of customer requirements than the quality department. This is why quite often the quality department is tasked with International Material Data System (IMDS) reporting.
