What does PDR training involve and what skills can you gain?
PDR training is an intensive process that combines theory with practical exercises in real workshop conditions. Participants start by learning the fundamentals — understanding vehicle body structures and how the PDR method works. Next, they learn to identify different types of dents and apply the correct repair techniques. Each training day includes work with professional tools such as rods, lights, and glue pulling systems. Our instructors emphasize precision, safety, and consistent technique.
During the course, trainees gain experience in repairing hail damage, aluminum panels, and hard-to-reach areas. By the end of the program, they can assess repairs, organize their workspace, and communicate effectively with clients. We also teach ergonomics, tool selection, and work strategy for professional efficiency. The course takes place in Niepołomice and concludes with a certificate confirming the participant’s new PDR qualifications.
