Entry recommendations

To be prepared for this course, it helps to have:

  • an interest in working with your hands

  • good communication skills with customers and colleagues
  • basic comfort with numbers and measurements

What will you learn?

Most of the study covers the basics any workshop expects: working safely, handling tools and equipment properly, reading job sheets and workplace documents, and dealing with customers and colleagues clearly. You also learn to keep your own work area and waste handling in line with environmental and sustainability practices, and to use the numbers and measurements that come up daily when sizing and checking tyres. It suits school leavers or anyone changing careers who wants a practical start in a workshop without prior experience.
