Kawasaki To Launch New Technical Training Center For Dealers
Kawasaki Engines has announced a scheduled opening date of January 2026 for its new Technical Training Center, designed to deliver a more advanced and immersive educational experience to its dealer network. The new center will be at the company’s division headquarters in Grand Rapids, Mich. The state-of-the-art facility marks a significant investment in the continued education and support of Kawasaki Engines dealers and technicians. The new center will allow for in-depth, hands-on training that expands beyond the capabilities of the meeting spaces currently used to conduct training sessions.
The facility will host the company’s two flagship training schools, Update School and Hands-On School, as well as advanced engine system and diagnostic classes that expand on these two core sessions. Advanced training will include engine teardown classes, electronic fuel injection system diagnostics, and failure analysis, which will provide technicians with in-depth real-world experience in a fully equipped environment. Students will be tested and certified upon completion, ensuring consistent service quality across Kawasaki’s network of more than 7,700 dealers.
Beyond the classroom, the training center will feature a modern reception area and cafeteria for staff and students, connected teaching and shop spaces, and office space with workstations — all designed to enhance flexibility and the overall learning environment.
