Accenture launches LearnVantage Academy for Software Defined Vehicle

Accenture has launched a global Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) Academy, as part of its Accenture LearnVantage business. The SDV Academy offers specialised training modules for enterprises in the automotive industry who want to build skills for software-defined, service-driven digital mobility which is expected to be a USD 3.5 trillion market and will account for 40% of global revenues in the automotive industry by 2040.

As per a 2024 study by Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), Indian automotive industry will need up to 2 lakh skilled people by 2030 to meet the government's vision of 30% electric vehicle adoption.

Building on Accenture’s deep expertise in the auto industry, the SDV Academy has been developed by industrial automation experts at Accenture in collaboration with ecosystem partners. It offers a comprehensive industry relevant curriculum with 40+ modules, an interactive sandbox environment which provides a dedicated space to facilitate hands on learning, and expert coaching for critical SDV domains and industry standards like AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture (AUTOSAR) and Functional Safety. AI enabled hyper-personalized learning paths ensure that participants get a customised learning experience that includes practical skills and knowledge.

Kishore Durg, global lead of Accenture LearnVantage said, “As the third largest car market in the world, India is uniquely positioned to become a global automotive hub, thanks to its rapidly growing interest in electric vehicles (EVs) and connected cars, along with strong export momentum.

Today, vehicles are viewed the same way as smartphones - the ultimate connected devices, and consumer preferences are evolving quickly. Indian auto makers must reinvent their R&D and manufacturing processes, and continuously equip their people with emerging, specialised technological skills. Our SDV Academy is here to help them take charge of their skilling journeys, and stay ahead in a rapidly developing, and competitive talent environment.”

The SDV Academy will include:
•    Instructor-Led Training: An eight-week instructor-led, fully immersive training program with both online and offline learning experiences. It includes hands-on assignments on the tech stack, ensuring participants gain practical experience.
•    Modular Program Structure: 40 plus immersive modules that cover the complete SDV landscape, from hardware to software, including chip-to-cloud layers to develop digital fluency across key vehicle domains such as Infotainment, automated driving technologies and advanced driver assistance systems (AD/ADAS), connectivity, and electrical / electronic (E/E) architecture.
•    Applied Learning: Two intuitive and practical tech-stack research projects with a robust evaluation framework and defined qualification criteria, ensuring participants apply what they learn and are job-ready upon completion.
•    State-of-the-art Labs: Access to state-of-the-art labs and infrastructure, bringing scenario-based and enhanced learner experiences to life.
•    Industry-Relevant Curriculum: Emphasis on automotive-specific frameworks, standards, and compliances, including AUTOSAR, Automotive Software Process Improvement and Capability dEtermination (ASPICE), Functional Safety, and Cybersecurity.
