Bendix Airbrake School Rings the Bell for 2005

Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC on Monday announced its 2005 schedule for Air Brake Training School.

The Bendix school curriculum covers the fundamentals of compressed air, air system failure mode diagnosis tactics and troubleshooting. This year's classes feature exercises that emphasize hands-on opportunities for participants.
Last year Bendix air brake experts trained more than 8,000 people, equaling just over 40,000 student hours.
Bendix is adding nine new cities to this year's class schedule. The new locations are Trussville, Ala.; Santa Ana, Calif.; Fredrick, Md.; Springfield, Mass.; Pittsburgh; York, Pa.; Houston; San Antonio; and Tacoma, Wash.
The 100% ASE-certified Bendix Service, Warranty and Training (SWAT) team conducts as many as 29 three-day, in-depth product schools each year. Specialized, on-site fleet training is also available.
The all-inclusive course incorporates description, operation and service elements for the total range of components found within dual air brake systems. Additional topics covered include the latest developments in antilock braking systems and new disc brake technology. Operational air brake demonstration boards, cutaways and visual aids demonstrate the components and related systems.
The Bendix Air Brake Training School costs $200 per attendee ($300 in Canadian funds). All course materials are provided. Lunch is included when the class meets from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Transportation and lodging is the responsibility of the student. Dress code is casual.
Class size is limited, and enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis.
