Training

After inscribing in the Geneva Mechanics School in 1999 as a full time student, Emmanuel put his autodidact field experience (that started with his dad under the family English taxi) to good use and was given special permission to shorten the usual 4 years cursus to 3 years. This accelerated pace did not stop Emmanuel from finishing best student in the canton in 2002 and also winning the AMAD “prize for excellence”  in the automobile community.

In 2003, wishing to perfect his training in mechanics and engineering Emmanuel enrolled himself in the training for the “Brevet Federal de diagnostician” the highest obtainable rank in automotive tech training.

In 2004 the Pitstop teamed up with Samuel Lipinski who after obtaining his CFC in 2002 at the same time as Emmanuel also enrolled in the same session for the Brevet Federal de diagnostician in 2003

Bravo ! to Emmanuel and Samuel who were both among the only 3 out of 17! originally inscribed to pass the exams for the Brevet Federal.

In 2005 the Pitstop team welcomed its first apprentice Valere Mermoud. Now in his last year of training he was also able to accelerate his training by taking first and second year at once and has now been recognized in the school for his excellent results. Bravo !

Our team is completed with the arrival of Telmo Ferreira in 2007 who after obtaining his CFC in mechanics in 2003 went on to follow training at the Engineering School of Locle in 2004-2005.
