EV & Hybrid Training for the Real World
EVs aren't going away. Make sure your workshop is ready for them.
Course Overview
The number of hybrids and EVs on Australian roads is growing fast. Workshops that can't service them are already losing work.
This course gives your technicians a solid understanding of EV and hybrid systems — how they're built, how they work, and how to work on them safely. High voltage systems aren't something you learn on the job. Get it right from the start.

Who is this course designed for?
Working technicians and mechanics looking to upskill with practical auto technician courses. Whether you're getting across EV and hybrid systems, wheel alignment or automotive electrical — Hi-Bolt gets you job-ready fast.
How many people are in each session?
Small groups of approximately 10–12 participants — so every tech gets real hands-on time with the equipment and facilitator. No large classrooms, no getting lost in the crowd.
Are Hi-Bolt courses accredited?
Some courses are. The EV & Hybrid Vehicle Systems course is nationally accredited — participants who successfully complete it receive a Statement of Attainment for AUR101 and AUR011, recognised under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Wheel Alignment courses are not currently accredited but deliver practical, industry-recognised skills you can apply immediately back in the workshop. More accredited courses are in development — check back for updates.
What's included in the automotive course fee?
Everything. All course materials, refreshments and professional facilitation are included. No hidden extras.
How long is the course?
One full day — 8 hours of hands-on automotive training. Starting at 8:30am.
Do I need experience to attend?
It depends on the course. Most Hi-Bolt courses are designed for working technicians and mechanics with basic hands-on workshop experience. The EV & Hybrid Vehicle Systems course requires no prior EV knowledge - it starts from the ground up. Wheel Alignment Stage Two requires existing hands-on alignment experience. We recommend completing Stage One first if you're new to alignment.
