Building on the heritage of Technical Associates of Charlotte (TAC) — a U.S. training organization founded in 1961 and acquired by I-care Group in 2023 —Technical Associates of Europe represents a major expansion of I-care’s training ecosystem.

“Technical Associates of Europe marks an important milestone in I-care’s journey,” said Fabrice Brion, CEO of I-care Group. “It reflects both the maturity of our organization and our ambition to continue growing, creating high-value jobs and sharing our know-how with industrial professionals across Europe.”

For more than six decades, TAC has been recognized as one of the most reputable training institutions in vibration analysis and condition monitoring. Its proven educational methodology and alignment with international certification standards (ISO 18436-2) will now be available to professionals across Europe, including Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, the Nordics, and Central and Eastern Europe.

TAE will combine this legacy with I-care’s extensive field expertise, advanced digital tools such as Wi-care™ wireless vibration sensors and the I-see™ AI platform, and the Group’s deep experience in reliability engineering and predictive technologies.

“Technical Associates of Europe represents a new chapter in I-care’s story,” said Oliver Dengis, Director of Technical Associates of Europe. “Our goal is to combine I-care’s practical experience with the proven teaching methods of Technical Associates of Charlotte to make maintenance and reliability education more accessible, recognized and impactful.”

Technical Associates of Europe, headquartered in Mons, Belgium, will begin operations in December 2025. It will build on the proven methodologies of its U.S. counterpart while developing a tailored curriculum for the European market. The new organization will offer certifying programs in:

  • Predictive Maintenance (PdM)

This expansion strengthens I-care’s global training ecosystem and reinforces its commitment to continuous learning, innovation, and industrial excellence.
