Building Australia’s future automotive workforce. An industry-led learning ecosystem that builds workforce capability, safety, productivity and technology adoption through flexible, workplace-integrated learning.
Rapid EV technology, growing digitalisation and rising safety and compliance requirements are increasing what a workshop workforce needs to know, while labour shortages and productivity pressure limit the time technicians can spend away from the bay. S2-Academy™ responds to a workforce problem: developing capability without removing technicians from productive work.
A five-step pathway.
Learn
Build knowledge and skills.
Apply
Put learning into practice on the job.
Certify / Assure
Validate competence and performance.
Refresh
Reinforce skills and stay current.
Improve
Drive safety, quality and productivity.
“Learning doesn’t stop at certification. We build a culture of lifelong learning and ongoing improvement.”
From competency to continuing knowledge.
FIG. 01The S2 learning and capability pathway, from S2-Academy training to S2-TechSafe CPD.
Three levels, one pathway.
Apprentices and technicians
Workshop safety fundamentals, equipment safety, EV awareness and workplace risk management, for apprentices, technicians, trade assistants and contractors.
Supervisors and controllers
Risk management, operational control, compliance and incident management, for leading hands, workshop controllers, service advisors and supervisors.
Managers and business leaders
Governance, due-diligence obligations and EV transition planning, for service managers, fixed-operations managers, business leaders and WHS managers.
Delivery built around the bay.
Hybrid learning
Online modules, virtual learning environments, instructor-led workshops, workplace coaching and practical demonstrations.
Micro-learning
Short practical sessions integrated into normal operations, capped at 45 to 90 minutes.
Continuous development
Stackable pathways that build over a career, not a single course.
Industry relevant
Learning developed with industry stakeholders, not generic content.
Where this sits
Tier 1 of the S2 Co-System™
S2-Academy™ is the foundation of Tier 1, Knowledge & Competence. Once technicians are trained and certified, S2-TechSafe™ continues their learning as the engineering knowledge and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) platform. The two are complementary parts of Tier 1.
