Course description
This specialized training program is designed for automotive locksmiths and diagnostic technicians seeking to expand their expertise in key programming and immobilizer systems for VAG (Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, Škoda) and JLR (Jaguar Land Rover) vehicles. These manufacturers use some of the most advanced and rapidly evolving security platforms in the industry, making structured, professional training essential to perform key-related services safely, accurately, and lawfully.
Throughout the course, participants are introduced to the architecture, components, and operational principles that underpin VAG and JLR security systems. Trainees will gain a strong understanding of immobilizer communication, smart key technology, proximity systems, and the diagnostic workflows required to perform legitimate key programming operations. The course emphasizes the use of approved diagnostic procedures, proper authentication practices, and compliance with industry regulations.
Through a balanced combination of theory and guided practical exercises (within legal and ethical boundaries), students will learn how to identify system types, interpret fault data, and apply correct service steps across common VAG and JLR model ranges. By the end of the program, participants will be equipped with the knowledge needed to confidently and responsibly handle key-related tasks on modern VAG and JLR vehicles while maintaining the highest standards of security and professionalism.
