How the programme is structured

You start with the online courses and live classes, which cover how EVs work: batteries and BMS, motors, controllers and charging. The live classes run twice a week for about a month, with a revision and doubt-clearing session at the end.

You are invited to the practical workshop after 2 months from enrolment, once at least 4 of the 6 online courses are complete and your live-class attendance is at least 80%. The workshop is held in person at our Delhi or Pune centre, on DIYguru's designated EV training vehicles and platforms.

Who the course is for

The CEVT programme suits 12th pass, ITI, diploma and polytechnic learners, working mechanics who want to move to EVs, and service staff at EV dealerships and fleets.

What the syllabus does not cover

An honest syllabus says what is outside it. The CEVT programme does not include:

  • Specialised or advanced repairs, such as complex controller, charger and PCB-level repairs.
  • Training on a particular brand's vehicles; the workshop uses DIYguru's designated EV training vehicles and platforms.
  • A guaranteed job, salary, employer or job location.

Certificate

Each online course has its own completion certificate. After the workshop and the final assessment you receive the CEVT certificate, which is ASDC-certified and can be verified online by employers.
