The Electric Vehicle (EV) Technician training program addresses a global need for people who are skilled in diagnosing, servicing and repairing high voltage EVs, and commercial charging stations. You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of electrical vehicle circuits through a blend of theoretical and hands-on instruction. Our multimedia learning resources and cutting-edge electrical/electronics simulation software (CircuitLogix Pro) enable you to test, validate and understand the complexities of circuits commonly found in EVs. This program is highly beneficial to Automotive Service Technicians who have a strong background in internal combustion engine (ICE) powered vehicles, but lack the skills in power electronics and data communication systems to safely perform service-related work on EVs and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs). This program is also relevant to electricians who will be installing, servicing and maintaining residential and commercial EV charging stations.
