Frequently asked questions
Do I need any electrical knowledge before starting?
No. The course starts with the atom, conductors and insulators and builds up to circuits, components and converters.
Will I need any equipment?
Not to complete the course. A basic multimeter and a few components are useful if you want to practise what you learn, but the lessons are recorded videos on the portal.
What electronics components are covered?
Resistors (types and how to read them), capacitors and their markings, inductors, and diodes including forward and reverse biasing and their uses in EVs.
Is there a project?
Yes, the course includes a DIYguru project lesson. Projects are submitted from the lesson in the course player and reviewed by trainers.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes. When you complete all lessons and the required quizzes and assignments, you receive a digitally signed certificate that anyone can check through its public verification link or QR code.
Is this part of a programme?
Yes. It is the fundamentals course of the CEVT β Certified EV Technician Programme.
How is the course delivered?
As recorded video lessons on the portal that you watch at your own pace, with quizzes, assignments and a project where the course includes them. Your progress is saved lesson by lesson.
What if I get stuck?
Ask in the course's Q&A on the portal β a trainer answers there. Live doubt-clearing sessions are added when they are scheduled for the course.
What certificate will I get?
A digitally signed certificate of completion once you finish the lessons and the required quizzes and assignments. Each certificate has a public verification link and QR code anyone can check.

Learner Stories
What our learners say
The hardware-first approach made all the difference. Came in from a generalist electronics background; the BMS and motor-drive modules gave me concrete vocabulary I could carry into Infineon interviews.
Souvik Hazra
Senior Manager Β· Infineon Technologies
Industry-grade depth without the academic ivory tower. The MATLAB Simulink + capstone defence prepared me for exactly the kind of cross-functional EV problems we solve at Cummins.
Sharad Yeola
Application Controls Lead Β· Cummins Inc.
Started with electronics, walked into a BMS role in Germany. The applied projects + mentor reviews are what carried me through β the certifications opened the door, the depth got me hired.
