It is a great time to join the automotive industry with the exciting developments in vehicles.

This programme aims to allow you to develop core automotive engineering skills in preparation for a career in the automotive industry.

This is a popular programme with limited places.

The automotive industry is rapidly changing. In the early 2000s, commercial vehicles had between one and four electronic modules. Today 20 to 50 modules are commonplace.

Today the automotive industry can provide a clean, technically challenging and constantly changing career. No two days can be the same, and the industry needs more capable automotive technicians.

If you like variation in your work, this is the career for you.

On this programme, you will learn in the workshop or a classroom three days a week, starting at 8 am, and two days a week, you will be in a work placement. You will need to find your own work placement.
