Technicians to be taken through steps that ensure high level of competency for HEV work

Webinar series promoting safe working practices on hybrid electric vehicles launched
Autologic is to launch a series of webinars to help educate technicians and workshops in hybrid electric tech.

Autologic, the automotive diagnostics and technical support company, has launched a new webinar series offering the automotive industry expertise and thought leadership on hybrid and electric vehicle (HEV) safe and competent working practices.

Autologic is set to kick off its first webinar series this month and aims to educate and promote awareness to technicians and workshop owners about accuracy and safety when working with HEV vehicles.

With the first Autologic webinar set to go live on 30 April, the company aims to provide registrants with an informative overview of the HEV market, ultimately unlocking the myths around working on these types of vehicle for participants.

Qualifications technicians require

Lead presenters, Tony Gill, customer support manager, Damon Howes, technical support manager, and Stephen Jones, support technician, will take listeners through a key set of essential areas, including current legislation and qualifications technicians require, basic HEV safety, workshop PPE requirements, safe working practices and more.

Throughout, participants will be guided with discussion, case studies and videos, with ample time to speak and ask their presenters (and each other) questions about anything to do with working on HEVs.

Autologic has said it understands the frustration that workshop owners and technicians go through to attain all the information required in order to implement safe working practices for HEVs in their workshops.

Tony Gill commented: “By ensuring that technicians have achieved a level of competency and have the required knowledge, repairs on HEVs can be carried out more accurately, efficiently and safely, which can only be beneficial to technicians, garage owners and car owners.”

“Beneficial to garage owners”

Gill continued: “Our aim is to promote processes and practices in the industry that ensure that those working with HEVs have the knowledge to work on HEVs safely.

“We highly support the essential work being carried out by the Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) who are looking to ensure that the UK’s automotive workforce are trained and have the skills needed to repair vehicles safely.

“Our new webinar aims to provide a basic overview of the HEV industry and what steps workshop owners, and technicians, need to take in order to become compliant, as well as to provide a platform for informative peer to peer discussion.”

Autologic’s webinar ‘Unlocking the myths on HEVs’ is a crucial event to attend for those that want to ensure they are kept up to date within the industry, or for those looking to start working on HEVs in their workshops, the company said.

Autologic webinars are open to everyone and are FREE to attend.
