European Motorcycle Training Quality Label

The European Motorcycle Training Quality Label was launched in 2016. The program is championed by the European Association of Motorcycle Manufacturers (ACEM), the German Road Safety Council (DVR), and the International Motorcycling Federation (FIM). It is a voluntary certification system for motorcycle safety training programs after a rider has acquired a license that is available to all training centers. The aim is to enable motorcyclists to find the best post-license training facilities in Europe. In 2019, the Quality Label received the European Road Safety Charter Award from the European Commission in the “Voluntary Commitments” category. This award recognizes those initiatives that help to improve road safety and save lives on Europe's roads.

Youth development program – supporting young talent in sport

YOUNG FIGHTERZ is the name of our program for promoting the next generation of talent in motorsport. Austria’s young riders in the 85cc class are referred to as YOUNG FIGHTERZ. All riders, regardless of which make or whether they are a license holder or amateur rider, are eligible to participate. Following the great success of the 85cc training camps in previous years, this training series was extended last year to include two camps for riders in the 65cc class, the MINI FIGHTERZ. Our training camps take place at venues that offer the best options for training and further development.
