Overview

IMI Level 4 Award in the Diagnosis, Testing and Repair of Electric/Hybrid Vehicles & Components

TTS is authorised to provide Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) accredited electric vehicle (EV) upskill training.

Transport Training Services is responding to industry demand by offering training on electric/hybrid vehicles for fully qualified technicians, working in the light vehicle sector, that need to learn how to safely maintain and repair electric or hybrid vehicles, or anyone with existing knowledge that wants to be certified to demonstrate competence.

Driven by targets set by government to enable adoption of zero emission cars and vans, there is a very real need to increase technician competence and in turn, consumer confidence that electric and hybrid vehicles can be maintained properly and safely. Recognising this early on, TTS set out to address the issue within Northern Ireland and now has trainers suitably qualified to deliver IMI TechSafe™ courses.

As Northern Ireland’s premier motor industry training specialist, TTS has acquired three hybrid vehicles, including a brand new, top of the range Toyota RAV4, plus an additional new plug-in hybrid to ensure that learners are training on the most up-to-date vehicle specifications.
