Is this EV course recognised for jobs in Kerala?

Yes. The programme is delivered with DIYguru, an ASDC (Automotive Skills Development Council) partner, and aligns with NSQF job roles like EV Service Technician and Battery Technician. Certificates are accepted by EV dealers, fleet operators and service workshops across Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram and Kozhikode for entry-level technician hiring.

I live near Infopark, Kakkanad. Is the centre easy to reach?

Yes. The Kochi centre is reachable from Kakkanad, Edappally, Vyttila, Aluva and Tripunithura using Kochi Metro plus feeder buses, and weekend batches are scheduled to suit Infopark and SmartCity professionals who want to reskill into EV roles without quitting their current job.

What does the course cover for EV batteries?

You learn lithium-ion cell chemistry, pack architecture, BMS basics, safe handling, state-of-charge and state-of-health diagnostics, thermal management, and step-by-step fault finding on 2W and 3W packs. There is hands-on practice on real EV battery modules using multimeters, cell testers and BMS diagnostic tools used by Kochi workshops.

Do I need an engineering background to join?

No engineering degree is required. ITI, diploma and Plus-Two science graduates can join the technician track. We start from automotive basics, electrical safety and tools, then move to EV-specific systems. Engineering graduates can opt for the advanced module covering BMS design, vehicle controllers and EV charging infrastructure planning.

Can I do this course part-time alongside my job?

Yes. Kochi batches run in weekday evening and weekend formats specifically for working technicians, dealership staff and IT professionals from Infopark and SmartCity. The core technician programme is typically 8 to 12 weeks with practical sessions on Saturdays and Sundays, plus recorded theory you can revisit on your phone.

What placement support do you offer after the course?

We share verified openings from Kochi EV dealers including Ola Electric, Ather, TVS and Bajaj Chetak, plus charging operators, fleet workshops and Kochi Metro contractors. Support includes resume help, mock interviews and direct introductions.
