The new center operates under globally consistent training standards defined by FUSO Academy, MFTBC's global training headquarters, while delivering programs tailored to the specific needs of the Middle East and Africa region.

Includes EV Training Space

The facility spans approximately 362 square meters and includes two training classrooms equipped for electric vehicle training, a dedicated sales and soft skills training room, and an E-Lab for diagnostics and electrical systems training. The center enables a combination of classroom-based and hands-on practical learning.

Training Technicians, Sales & Service Advisors

The center will support a wide range of roles across the network, including technicians, service advisors, sales personnel, and management, through structured training programs designed to enhance service quality and operational efficiency, while strengthening technical competencies to support the ongoing transition toward more advanced technologies, including zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs), across the MEA region.

MFTBC said these efforts will contribute to faster vehicle diagnostics, improved repair quality, enhanced preventive maintenance capabilities, and more specialized support for advanced vehicle technologies, helping maximize vehicle uptime and customer satisfaction.

The establishment of FUSO Academy Dubai follows MFTBC's transition to a fully standalone regional operating model on April 1, 2026, following its separation from Daimler Truck AG and the formation of the ARCHION Group. As part of this transition, the new training center was established to further strengthen capability development across the MEA region and support future business growth through dedicated regional training resources.
