From online courses to in-person/virtual classroom training
We offer three types of training: Free online courses cover the majority of our portfolio. They are available around the clock and can be done at your own speed. Virtual class courses also take place online, but on pre-defined dates. They are held in small groups, supported by a trainer, and consequently offer a high level of interaction. Our in-person class courses take place in one of our 165 training centers located worldwide. You can take a look at one of our training rooms here.
It is also possible to hold private face-to-face courses on-site at your premises to accommodate any specific needs.
Our training plans: Earn skills step-by-step
Our certifications are a set of courses compiled to provide you with more in-depth knowledge on a particular topic. They build on two levels: At the EXPERT level, you receive a mix of online and classroom courses. At the MASTER level, you acquire the most comprehensive technical and commercial competences in classroom courses. Our training plans allow you to keep track of your progress at all times and to develop it in a targeted manner. We also offer additional, specialized training with general overviews of and product knowledge for various industries.
Obtainable certifications
Show your skills with certifications
You can earn certificates for every level of our training plans. They are available in all major languages and allow you to prove your technical skills and competences. To obtain a certificate, you have to pass an online or classroom exam. All certificates are stored online in your personal area of the Bosch Building Technologies Academy and can be downloaded and printed at any time. Each certificate is valid for 24 months. Before it expires, you will receive an email with a notification reminding you of this. To continue to be certified, you have one year to take the free recertification online and pass the subsequent exam.
