ARE YOU HYBRID AND EV READY? By 2030 new petrol and diesel vehicles will stop being sold in the UK under the government commitment to reduce emissions. Its is predicted that by then there will be 10million hybrid and electric vehicles on the roads in the UK and Ireland.

ARE YOU READY FOR THAT DEMAND? Only 5% of technicians across the UK and Ireland are trained to work on these types of vehicles safely, that leaves a huge opportunity for your business. The UK will need 7000+ hybrid and electric technicians each year for the next 10 years to keep up with the rise in sales, so why not upskill and be amongst the few technicians that have a hybrid qualification.

LEVEL 2 AND 3 HYBRID AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, SYSTEM REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT 263773020 14 IMI CREDITS Our level 2 and 3 hybrid and EV course is a 2 day comprehensive training that is specifically designed to cover all aspects of hybrid and electric vehicle technology from basic procedures around safely handling high voltage systems through to content that looks in depth at how the propulsion and re-generation system is controlled. Other subjects covered include high voltage air-conditioning compressors, DC-DC converters, PTC heater assemblies along with high pressure hydraulic braking systems and the management between conventional braking and regeneration braking balance.

LEVEL 2: This course is specifically designed towards a person that maybe required to work on an electrically propelled/hybrid vehicle and in particular the safety procedures and requirements of these types of technologies. This course is suitable for technicians carrying out routine maintenance and repairs in or around electrical/hybrid propulsion systems and will enable the delegate to have an understanding of the Construction, function and layout of these types of vehicles along with the methods to ensure the systems are safe to work on the to minimise the risks to self and others.

LEVEL 3: This course is specifically designed to cover all aspects of hybrid/electrically propelled technology. Covering the basic procedures of safety in handling high voltage systems through to content that looks at in depth on how the propulsion and re-generation system is controlled. Along with the management of the inverter power unit, a thorough understanding of battery management and how information is used to maximize the efficiency of the system will be gained. Other subjects covered include high voltage air conditioning compressors, DC-DC converters, PTC heater assemblies along with high pressure hydraulic braking systems and the management between conventional braking and regeneration braking balance. Suitable for technicians carrying out repairs and replacement of hybrid/electrically propelled HV components.
