Course intro · 90 seconds

Watch the course in 90 seconds.

A short animated walkthrough of what your team will learn, who teaches it, and why it’s pitched at owners and directors who actually have to sign the strategy off.

Hit play and the course intro tells you the rest in less time than it takes to make a coffee.

01 / Why this course

The whole industry is in transition. Your team needs to be ready.

The shift to zero-emission vehicles is rewriting every part of the automotive value chain — manufacturing, supply, retail, service and aftermarket. The pressure is regulatory, customer-led and capital-led, and it’s all moving at once.

Industry practice — including operators like Servicesure Autocentres on sustainability records — shows what good aftermarket sustainability practice looks like. The UK’s Road to Zero Strategy sets the regulatory trajectory the rest of the industry is now following.

This course gives automotive teams EV-transition fluencypractical sustainability levers and credible reporting tools for manufacturers, dealers and service operators alike.
