DENSO Aftermarket’s ongoing commitment to helping technicians increase their technical knowledge and understanding has been spotlighted by its European wide League of True Mechanics competition. 

 
DENSO Aftermarket Europe, Pan European Strategic Marketing Manager, Fatiha Laauich comments, “We introduced the League of True Mechanics (LOTM) in 2020 to provide a little friendly competition to run alongside high quality training and assessment modules and it became an instant hit with professionals across Europe.”

Fatiha points out that DENSO is widely recognised as one of the most technically proficient automotive parts manufacturers. The DENSO e-learning programme provides detailed technical information as well as the interactive online courses that the LOTM competition is based on. Technicians are then encouraged to study the material and complete a final exam, during which they have the opportunity to win DENSO coins.

The coins are awarded for correctly answering the question posed by a ‘mini quiz’ within the modules and then in the final exam at the end. The number of DENSO coins earned during the year determines the overall position in the competition. In addition to its primary informative and educational objectives, the LOTM competition combines both regional and European interest, because annually it features not only market specific winners, which in some regions include both workshop and distributor categories, but also an overall, pan-European winner.

Because the study courses from the previous year’s LOTM competitions are still useful and relevant, they remain on the DENSO e-Learning platform indefinitely, but to keep the competition fresh and up to date with the latest important additional technical content and new modules are also introduced every year. 

Fatiha says, “To get involved, simply visit the DENSO e-learning portal at denso-technic.com, register as a 'Garage' or 'Distributor,' and start collecting coins. By participating, there is a chance to win one of the top 10 prizes or a super prize, a voucher for €2,000. Don’t miss this opportunity! Take part in the competition, gain valuable technical knowledge, and win fantastic prizes!”
