Course Overview
The VDA 2: Production Process & Product Approval (PPA) course by Koenig Original is designed to equip professionals with in-depth knowledge of the VDA Volume 2 standard, which governs quality assurance for automotive supplies and serial parts submission. This training prepares participants for the official certification exam leading to a Certificate of Qualification, recognized across the German automotive industry. It is ideal for quality engineers, production managers, and purchasing specialists involved in product release processes. With over 90% of German automotive suppliers adhering to VDA standards, mastery of PPA procedures is critical for compliance and competitiveness. The course ensures attendees understand triggers for PPA initiation, evidence requirements for internal and external releases, and integration of PPA into product engineering workflows.
Participants engage with core components of the VDA 2 framework, including the PPA trigger matrix, sampling levels, process validation, and documentation via the initial sample report (ISR). The hands-on lab environment uses real-world case studies and standard templates from VDA Volume 2, allowing learners to simulate full PPA execution within a structured classroom setting. Students configure release processes for both physical components and software-integrated products, applying chronological planning aligned with product development timelines. A key project involves managing a mock supplier-customer audit scenario, where teams must compile evidence, validate production processes, and justify product approval decisions in accordance with IATF 16949 and legal frameworks such as ProdHaftG and REACH.
This course directly prepares candidates for the VDA 2 Certificate of Qualification, a credential increasingly required by OEMs like Volkswagen, BMW, and Daimler. Certified professionals report an average salary increase of 12–15% in quality leadership roles within automotive supply chains. Koenig Original differentiates itself through Guaranteed-to-Run batches and access to official VDA-aligned courseware, ensuring consistent delivery even for low-enrollment groups. By mastering PPA protocols, attendees position themselves as essential contributors to quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and customer satisfaction in global automotive manufacturing environments.
