This half day update training course is a requirement for the existing certificate to remain valid for cleanliness inspections within the scope of VDA 19.1 (2026).

Participants who have previously completed a VDA QMC training as Skilled Assistant for Technical Cleanliness in accordance with VDA 19.1

This update training course covers only the new features and changes introduced by VDA 19.1 (2026) compared to VDA 19.1 (2015).

Participants are expected to be familiar with the contents of VDA 19.1 (2015), which will not be explained in the upgrade training course.

At the end of the upgrade training course, a Knowledge Test consisting of ten questions (single choice) will be conducted. Participants who pass the test will receive a certificate confirming that they have completed the upgrade training course, which will be added to their existing Skilled Assistant for Technical Cleanliness certificate.

After passing the knowledge test you will receive a VDA QMC certificate of qualification.
