Cleevely Group brings back ‘At East with EV’ training
Cleevely Group will host an updated ‘At East with EV’ practical training course at its Cheltenham workshop in November.
The one-day course, which will take place on 7 November, is aimed at technicians and owners with IMI Level 2, 3 or 4 EV qualifications but limited practical experience.
Led by EV specialist Matt Cleevely and technical trainer Alistair Finch, delegates will work on real-world vehicles in a controlled workshop environment, gaining practical experience in EV diagnostics, testing and repair, working on various EV components both on and off vehicles.
Freshly updated, the course places a strong emphasis on real-world fault-finding and mechanical teardown, covering AC and DC charging faults, motor-generator windings and practical testing, motor internals and reduction gearboxes, and high-voltage battery pack assessment.
The programme also addresses the commercial side of EV repair, with practical guidance on pricing and profitability, supported by open group discussion throughout the day.
Matt Cleevely said: “Having the qualification is an important first step, but confidence comes from using those skills on the vehicles and faults you’re likely to see in the workshop.
“We developed this training around the needs of independent garages. The aim is to give technicians the practical experience to diagnose, test and repair EV systems safely and effectively, rather than turning work away or replacing complete units when a component-level repair may be possible.”
