Our Mangaluru centre is reachable from these neighbourhoods. If you searched for “EV course near me” or “EV technician training near Hampankatta”, you’re in the right place.
Yes. The DIYguru EV programme in Mangaluru is aligned with ASDC (Automotive Skills Development Council) and NSDC frameworks, both Government of India recognised bodies. Certificates are accepted by EV OEMs, service workshops and charging operators across Karnataka. The curriculum also maps to NSQF levels, so you can stack it with diploma or ITI qualifications later.
Do I need an engineering background to join?
No engineering degree required. The course is designed for ITI pass-outs, diploma holders, BSc graduates and working two-wheeler or auto mechanics. If you understand basic electricals and are comfortable using hand tools, you can join. We start from EV fundamentals, then move into battery diagnostics, BMS, motor controllers and charging systems step by step.
What does the course cover for EV batteries?
The battery module covers lithium-ion cell chemistry, pack assembly, BMS basics, thermal management, fault diagnosis, cell balancing, IR and capacity testing, and safe disposal. You also get hands-on with real 2W and 3W battery packs, spot welders and diagnostic tools, plus exposure to safety practices relevant to the humid coastal conditions common in Mangaluru.
Can I do this course part-time alongside my job?
Yes. We run weekend and evening batches specifically for working technicians from Mangaluru port-area workshops, KSRTC depots and local 2W dealerships. The hands-on labs are typically scheduled on Saturdays and Sundays, and theory is delivered through a blended online plus classroom model so you don't have to leave your current job to upskill.
What placement support does DIYguru provide in Mangaluru?
We provide placement support through our EV hiring partner network, which includes 2W EV brand dealerships (Ather, Ola, TVS, Bajaj), charging operators and fleet operators in and around New Mangalore Port. Support includes resume building, mock interviews and direct referrals. Placement assistance is offered, but final selection always depends on the employer.

Yes, our Mangaluru programme is reachable from Kankanady within roughly 15–20 minutes by city bus or auto. Students from Hampankatta, Bejai, Kadri, Bondel and even Surathkal regularly attend, since the centre is planned along the main city transit corridor.
