Level 2 - Vehicle Technology IMI Diploma

This course is designed for those who have a passion for cars as well as an interest in the maintenance of vehicles. This programme will develop the skills that you will have learnt on a Level 1 course and it will provide you with the practical experience and the technical knowledge needed to work in the automotive industry. You will learn how to carry out maintenance and repairs on cars, vans, and other light vehicles in our modern, fully equipped workshops. You will also gain a broad knowledge and understanding of health and safety in the workplace and other skills associated with working in a garage.

Throughout the course you will study a range of subjects, including the engine (including petrol and diesel engines), engines and transmissions, ignition and electrical systems, chassis and frames, and health and safety practices.

Good English and maths skills are essential for success in studying and for future employment prospects and so Croydon College ensures that these skills are developed in all learning opportunities.

It’s also important to have good English and maths qualifications and so all students will study English and maths and work towards an appropriate level and type of qualification including GCSE. This will be part of all 16-18 year old students’ Study Programme alongside their main vocational or academic qualification and will be discussed with students at interview.
