ADM Global launches Engineering Boost — training the automotive industry's engineering elite with brands Kia, Chery, Great Wall Motor, and Changan

ADM Global announced the launch of a large-scale educational program, "Engineering Overdrive." The initiative is being implemented jointly with global auto giants Kia Corporation, Chery Automobile, Great Wall Motor (GWM), and Changan Automobile Group and aims to create a talent pool of highly qualified engineering and technical specialists in Uzbekistan.

Strategic goal: 500+ engineers by 2030.

The program is designed for five years (through 2030). The main goal of the project is to train and improve the skills of approximately 500 highly qualified domestic automotive engineers, who will drive the development of the national automotive industry. Training will be conducted at leading technical universities in China and South Korea, as well as in the R&D and design centers of partner automakers.

The project is divided into two key areas:

Area 1. Advanced Training for Current SpecialistsEngineers and technologists from the ADM Global group of companies will be able to complete medium- and long-term internships of 3 to 12 months at the global R&D and design centers of Kia, Chery, GWM, and Changan located in Korea and China. This will allow them to directly benefit from the experience of global automotive industry leaders.

Chapter 2. Training High-Level SpecialistsStudents from technical universities in Uzbekistan will undergo a competitive selection process and will be able to continue their education free of charge at universities in China that collaborate with key automakers. The program is focused on providing the most practical and relevant education possible, meeting the needs of the modern automotive industry.

Key areas of training:

The program is aimed at developing specialists capable of more than just servicing cars. Graduates will be able to develop new products, design innovative units and components, test their own engineering solutions, and implement them in real production.

Priority areas of study:

• Telematics and cloud technologies in the automotive industry;
• Design and R&D of units and components;
• Design of exterior panels and body parts;
• Design and manufacture of tooling;
• Functional testing of vehicles and components;
• Instrument engineering;
• Machine tool making;
• Robotics and mechanical engineering.

Implementation of the "Engineering Boost" program This will allow Uzbekistan to transition from car assembly to deep localization and independent development of high-tech solutions, strengthening the country's position in the global automotive market.
