Mercedes Benz India has donated two new training cars and the latest Star diagnostic units to two Government Polytechnic institutes in Maharashtra.
The German luxury car maker has been supporting an advanced one-year-long Mechatronics programme it has developed for these institutes to help students keep pace with advancement in automotive technology, and develop skilled manpower.
Today the Govt Polytechnic Pune received the keys to a third Mercedes C-Class sedan, while the Govt Polytechnic Aurangabad got its second such car from the Company.
“In the service area, we are growing at a CAGR of 30%, and the demand for trained manpower is so high that there is a fight for them,” Eberhard Kern, MD and CEO, MBI said. The Company has trained 370 students since the inception of the course in 2006, and absorbed nearly half of them in their workshop and service outlets.
MBI currently also runs the course in Thiruvananthapuram and plans to forge a partnership with a fourth Institute in the northern part of the country.
