IMI Diagnosis, Testing, Repair Electric/hybrid Vehicles and Components (Level 4)

The IMI Level 4 Award in Diagnosis, Testing and Repair of Electric/Hybrid Vehicles and Components (QCF) is designed for technicians who are required to work ‘live’ on the electric/hybrid vehicle power train. The course provides clear understanding of the health and safety of individuals working on electric/hybrid vehicles.

On completion of this qualification technicians will be able to practically demonstrate that they have the skills required for repairing high voltage vehicle systems, components and associated systems. It is the first qualification to address live electric vehicle (high voltage) technology.

IMI Level 3 Electric Vehicle qualification.

You will be able to carry out a risk assessment on High voltage systems prior to working on them, as well as minimising the risk of injury to persons in contact with high voltage technologies.

The course includes:
