Hybrid and electric vehicle technical and safety awareness training course launched
Our Virtual Academy has launched its hybrid and electric vehicle training to support the knowledge of the tech across the automotive sector.

Our Virtual Academy has launched a new, IMI-certified and quality-assured programme training course: Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Awareness, designed to offer a comprehensive insight into the tech, its components, and how to deal with such vehicles in workshops.

The course has been designed to support sales executives, customer service respresentatives, parts advisors, dealership staff and fitters, notwithstanding technicians with their understanding of the increasingly seen vehicles.

It will give members of staff across the independent aftermarket the confidence to talk to customers about hybrid and electric vehicles, and the knowledge to work safely alongside technical staff in a workshop.

Online, quality-assured training

All of those who successful pass will achieve an IMI Quality Assured Programmes certificate.

All training is online, can be viewed on any device connected to the internet, and access is unlimited for a three-month subscription period.

The 23-part course covers a range of key subjects including what hybrid and electric vehicles are, the high voltage components found on hybrid and electric vehicles, identification, charging plug-in vehicles, ready mode, introduction into hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCEV) and electrocution.

How to work on hybrid and EV vehicles

Further course elements include hybrids and EVs when they’re in the workshop, health conditions and working alongside hybrid and EVs, working on hybrid and EVs and what High Voltage Isolation is, plus a safety-focused summary.

Candidates enrolled on the course get access to all chapters and an end test (which needs to be overseen by a manager).

The course costs £89.99 +VAT per user for three months unlimited access to the full course.

Customised plans and discounts are available for large employers.

Enrolling to the course

The standalone course is available to anyone, including those who are not existing subscribers to Our Virtual Academy.
