This free online course will equip you with practical skills to service and maintain electric vehicles.

Have you noticed how many electric vehicles are on the roads now? Most mechanics were trained on petrol engines. EVs work very differently. High-voltage systems, battery packs, and smart electronics are not things you pick up overnight. Without the right training, you simply cannot work on them safely.

This course was built for anyone who wants to become a skilled electric vehicle mechanic. It starts with how EV systems work, then moves into electrical fundamentals and high-voltage safety. You will learn about charging systems, control modules, and how all these parts communicate with each other.

By the end, you will know how to set up a safe workshop, use diagnostic tools to find faults, and carry out service tasks on EV components. You will be able to inspect battery systems, handle high-voltage parts safely, and diagnose real faults in electric vehicles.
