PHINIA Inc., the parent company of the Delphi Technologies, Delco Remy and Hartridge brands, has announced the expansion of its Garage 360 training platform with the addition of a new micro-learning series — short, targeted videos focused on automotive component diagnostics and installation. PHINIA’s stated goal is to directly improve workshop technician efficiency and deepen the product expertise of parts counter advisors at distribution outlets affiliated with its brands.
Micro-learning: training that adapts to shop reality
The micro-learning concept addresses a well-documented need in the automotive aftermarket: technicians and parts counter advisors do not have time to attend lengthy training sessions during working hours. Short videos—typically between three and ten minutes—let a technician or advisor learn a specific procedure, understand a diagnostic technique, or master a new product feature between customers, during a break, or before the shop opens in the morning. PHINIA integrates this reality directly into its distribution support strategy.
Garage 360: a platform that grows with the industry
Delphi/PHINIA’s Garage 360 platform is not new. Still, its continuous enrichment with digital content reflects a deeper trend in the North American aftermarket: parts manufacturers are investing more and more in end-to-end training throughout the distribution chain, from workshop technicians to parts counter advisors and shop managers. For Canadian shops and distributors working with Delphi brands, this expansion of Garage 360 represents concrete, accessible added value — at no additional cost.
A signal for Canada’s entire aftermarket industry
PHINIA’s initiative is part of a broader movement in which integrated training is becoming a major differentiator for aftermarket manufacturers. For Canadian shops and distributors choosing suppliers, the availability and quality of training resources associated with a brand are now selection criteria as important as price, parts availability, and catalogue coverage.
