COURSE INFORMATION
Light Vehicle to HGV Conversion
The course is designed to convert a light vehicle technician into a fully qualified HGV diagnostic technician through the covering of 5 level 3 modules. As we are aware the shortage of technicians within the HGV industry is becoming a key issue, especially in the recruitment sector. Reaching out into the light vehicle industry and completing this conversion course not only benefits the technician as they are learning and sustaining new skills but also the business aspect. Businesses can be confident in delivering a high quality of work as they know their technicians’ practices will be current and of an excellent quality.
Currently we are seeing an increased number of candidates coming from marine backgrounds as well as large vehicle manufacturers such as Volkswagen and Audi. The attractive prospect of the technician being able to earn a higher salary in the HGV industry is proving clinical to securing the skills of some great personnel. Financial incentives for the technicians on completion and also length of service contracts can also be used from a business aspect.
