Prevost's Field Service team is intimately involved with the service school program. Each class is led by a regional service manager (RSM) with a second RSM assisting. Classes combine lectures and practical application, with a 2011 H3 seated coach, a 2011 X3 Entertainer conversion coach and an earlier model H3 seated coach on hand to ensure that attendees get plenty of hands-on experience.
The syllabus consists of seven courses that focus on the Prevost H and X coach series. Three two-day courses cover electrical systems, HVAC systems and drive trains. Four one-day courses are devoted to pneumatic systems, accessories and safety, shell converters, and axles and brakes. Depending on their interest and experience, attendees should select between two and four courses for a total of four days.
