"Thanks for a truly excellent course, it's nice to be trained by someone just bursting to impart as much real world technical knowledge as possible.
It's true to say that we were both buzzing with excitement following your helpful guidance and I'm sure you've helped steer us down a better path.
This is what we hoped to get out of the course, and you really did deliver."

Diagnosis & Rectification of Faults in Electric & Hybrid Vehicles
This qualification covers the competence and knowledge needed to safely diagnose and rectify high voltage system faults in an electric vehicle.
The qualification also covers competence and knowledge on testing and storing high voltage batteries, as well as removing and replacing high voltage battery modules/packs and re-fitting high voltage battery packs in electric vehicles.
To be eligible for our Level 4 training, candidates must already hold a Level 2/3 qualification, preferably earned with us. We understand that the industry standards might not require a Level 2/3 qualification. Still, here at Fellten, we value the expertise and progression route that it offers, and we want to equip our trainees with the best knowledge possible.
Age restrictions: This qualification is approved for learners aged 18 or above. City & Guilds cannot accept any registrations for candidates under 18.
