Where Knowledge and Technology Meet.

We are excited to announce the launch of our Nexteligence Training Platform, which is designed to increase the knowledge and capabilities of Service Technicians for the Marathon Product Line.

We have carefully developed the Nexteligence program to increase the technical expertise of your technicians to reduce repair time for the fleets you service, increase productivity of your Marathon products or that of your customers – and provide your technicians with invaluable Troubleshooting knowledge that they can then use to train other technicians.

Nexteligence Training consists of:

Product Specific Maintenance, Adjustment,
And Troubleshooting (MAT) Training

Our most popular training course with over 1,000 trainees in 2019. Training may be completed at either our Fort Payne, AL factory, live webinar based training, or by on-site events. The revised curriculum includes a student guide and dedicated, “hands-on” sessions for each class. A course completion certificate will be awarded for each product course.
