MAN ProfiDrive. Individual training

Standard training courses on safety, economy or off-road driving give you the basics – but some fields of application require more. If you're interested in special industry solutions, special vehicle types or company-specific challenges, we will work with you to develop tailor-made training that is precisely geared towards your needs.

The process is easy. You come to us with a specific request or problem. The MAN ProfiDrive team then analyses your training needs in a structured way to create your training plan. From this, it develops an individual concept as tailor-made driving training with a clearly defined theoretical and practical component. This results in learning objectives, content and practical parts in a modular training course that can be flexibly and optimally adapted to your fleet, vehicles and operating conditions.

Your fleet can consist of trucks, buses or vans. Our experienced MAN ProfiDrive trainers not only provide in-depth specialist knowledge, but also develop a suitable training concept for you that perfectly suits your industry solution and your own specific vehicles. Quick and precise familiarisation with new issues, special builds and special areas of application.

What you will learn

You determine the content. Try combinations of existing training modules or completely new topics. You might want one-to-one driver training for selected employees or a comprehensive needs-analysis training course for the entire fleet.

Advantages of intensive training:

  • Instruction in special builds or special vehicles as part of a specialised training course that is tailored to your emergency services vehicles and body variants.
  • Driver training on unusual terrain (e.g. airports, factory premises, open-cast mines) as tailor-made driver training that reflects the real conditions of your industry.
  • Combination of economy and safety for specific route profiles.
  • Support for driver events, product presentations and internal events.
  • Train-the-trainer concepts for your own fleet managers.

Depending on the objective, we can combine theory and practical training however you like – from technical instruction to intensive driving practice in your own vehicles.

Note: As this is an individual training course, the eligibility for funding according to BKrFQG/BAG (BALM) is reviewed in individual cases depending on the content we design.

Situations in which individual training is helpful

  • Special vehicles and special builds
    If your vehicles or equipment are not covered by standard courses – for example, fire service, heavy-duty vehicles, municipal vehicles or other special solutions. In this case, you need specific fleet training with a focus on special vehicles, bodies and industry-specific requirements. 
  • Company events and product launches
    If you are planning an in-house trade fair, a driver event or a product presentation and need professional instructors to provide targeted support for your drivers. 
  • Specific route requirements
    If new, demanding routes – such as inner-city bottlenecks, plant logistics or alpine routes – require your drivers to be prepared, e.g. as part of a modular training concept that specifically maps individual route profiles and deployment scenarios 

All of these modules can be part of a modular training concept designed as an industry solution specifically for your company.
