TrainSMART is Pro-Cut's nationwide training and certification program in Rotor Matching. All your questions are answered here.
TrainSMART is Pro-Cut's nationwide training and certification program in rotor matching. The two-part program begins with an online class where techs complete a ten section web based program with companion videos, take a 15 question quiz, and upon passing the quiz, print a personalized certificate. This takes approximately 30-45 minutes to complete.
The second part of the program is a hands-on training class offered either at one of our official training centers, or on site at your shop given by your local Pro-Cut Expert. Every new lathe sold by Pro-Cut includes this on site training at no additional cost and to get the most of the hands on training taking the online class is a prerequisite. Please bring your printed certificate to the hands on training and the instructor will sign it to certify that you are now a full Pro-Cut Certified Technician!
Having the technicians properly trained on how to use the Pro-Cut Rotor Matching System is essential, but having Service Advisors that can explain the value of the service to customer is also critical to the success and profitability of the program. For Service Advisors there is a 10 section learning module to help them understand how the service works, and how to share the value with the customer, followed by a 15 question quiz.
Offering the Rotor Matching service will increase both customer satisfaction and brake service profits, so make sure to have all your service advisors take this training as soon as possible after the lathe purchase or you hire new personnel.
For Shop Owners, Managers, and Foremen:
TrainSMART certification will give your techs the expertise needed to use the Pro-Cut lathe efficiently, competently, and profitably. It will also provide them a basic understanding of troubleshooting and service that will minimize downtime and service costs. Finally, as a shop with TrainSMART certified techs and service advisors, your business will receive recognition on the Pro-Cut website as a certified rotor matching shop, offering proof to customers that your shop offers the highest quality brake service.

Given the speed of the Pro-Cut process and the current time allotments for brake service, a tech who knows how to use the Pro-Cut lathe can count on earning at least 1.8 hours of pay for 1.0 hour of work. TrainSMART certification will stay with you for your entire career, providing better job security and bigger paychecks.
For those that want to become an absolute expert on Rotor Matching using the Pro-Cut method, a new Master Level Program was created in conjunction with NC3 (The National Coalition of Certification Centers) and Snap-on. This will only be held at select NC3 certified technical colleges throughout the USA. Upon successful completion, students and/or technicians will be certified as Master Rotor Matching Technician and develop a highly valuable skillset by being able to diagnose and repair one of the most common and misunderstood customer issues facing the automotive repair industry.
