Electric/Hybrid Vehicle Routine Maintenance Level 2 Award

The Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Routine Maintenance Level 2 Award is designed for learners working in the motor vehicle sector who want to develop the knowledge needed to work safely around electric and hybrid vehicles. It is suitable for those carrying out routine maintenance activities and for learners who may encounter electric or hybrid vehicles as part of their role. 

Throughout the course, learners develop an understanding of electric and hybrid vehicle systems, including how key components operate and the potential hazards associated with high‑energy electrical systems. A strong focus is placed on health and safety, helping learners recognise risks and understand how to reduce the risk of injury to themselves and others when working on these vehicles. The course introduces safe working practices for preparing electric and hybrid vehicles before carrying out routine maintenance tasks. Learners also develop practical awareness of working safely around vehicles that may have experienced damage to their electrical systems. While learners do not work directly on high‑voltage components, the qualification ensures they understand how to operate safely around them. 

By the end of the course, learners will have gained essential knowledge and practical awareness needed to carry out routine maintenance on electric and hybrid vehicles safely. This Level 2 Award provides a strong introduction to this specialist area of the motor industry and supports progression and confidence for technicians as electric and hybrid vehicles become more common in everyday practice. This course is delivered at our Stephenson Road campus.
