Diagnosis Testing & Repair of Electric/Hybrid Vehicles & Components IMI Award

... United Kingdom
... South and City College Birmingham

Course Overview

More than 10 million electric vehicles (EVs) are on the road across the world in 2020. The European Automobile Manufacturers' Association, or ACEA, said registrations of hybrid electric passenger cars accounted for 20 per cent of the total EU market during the third quarter (July-September 2021).

In the West Midlands the plan for green recovery builds on commitments to make the West Midlands carbon neutral by 2041, with plans to convert all taxis, buses and 50% HGVs to electric by 2031.

The demand for trained mechanics, repairers with maintenance and diagnostic skills will be high to meet this increase.

Having a trained electric vehicle workforce will offer more opportunities for small and medium size businesses without having to meet the demands of the upskilling costs. Normally this course would cost £1,500 per candidate.

This is a Government In Work Skills initiative to rapidly upskill or retrain staff in the engineering sector through the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Institute of Technology.
