Hero MotorCorp, ASDC partner to upskill workforce in the auto sector

The Automotive Skills Development Council (ASDC) and leading two-wheeler manufacturer Hero MotoCorp have reportedly teamed up to help auto dealerships across the country bridge the digital skills gap.

According to the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the two, this alliance aims to train and upskill dealership personnel in an apprenticeship model.

For the unversed, ASDC is an industry-led initiative aimed at improving the automotive industry's ability to compete with international standards. It is supported by SIAM (Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers), ACMA (Automotive Component Manufacturers Association), and FADA (Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations), in collaboration with NSDC (National Skill Development Corporation) and the Government of India.

ASDC President Nikunj Sanghi mentioned that they are thrilled to work with Hero MotoCorp as it enables them to reach youth who can be trained and employed in the sector. It is also critical that the country's younger generation invest their hearts in the professions they chose, he added.

Naveen Chauhan, Hero MotoCorp's Head of Sales and After Sales, stated that with this strategic partnership, the firm would engage with ASDC to upskill and reskill the automotive workforce. As the automobile industry employs a larger population, there will be a high demand for skilled staff. The gap between available and required skills needs to be bridged to meet this demand, he emphasized.

The partnership would improve ASDC's capabilities and capacity in offering various learning modules and certifications for automotive servicing and curriculum development, along with college training to meet the global requirements. Hero MotoCorp, on the other hand, will present the content for the digital studying program.

The program will also enable candidates to acquire associated skills on futuristic automobiles, such as EV and HEV, and become more self-reliant, equipping them for a better future, thereby fulfilling Skill India’s broader vision of providing adequate training in market-relevant skills.
