EV skills in Chennai
Tamil Nadu's Electric Vehicles Policy 2023 aims to attract â‚ą50,000 crore of EV manufacturing investment and create 1.5 lakh jobs. It also sets a goal of making 30% of the state's bus fleet electric by 2030 and gives buyers a full road-tax exemption.
The Sriperumbudur belt west of the city is already making the change. Mobis India opened a battery-pack assembly plant next to Hyundai's Sriperumbudur factory in May 2025, and the Creta Electric was the first model to use packs assembled there. For engineers in the corridor, the useful skills are pack integration, high-voltage safety and testing.
MTC began running electric buses on 30 June 2025 with 120 low-floor buses from the Vyasarpadi depot.
The first phase of the World Bank-supported programme covers 625 e-buses across five MTC depots.
The Mobis plant at Sriperumbudur starts with capacity for 36,000 packs a year, which can be scaled to 75,000.
The 2023 policy reimburses part of employers' EPF contributions for new EV jobs given to Tamil Nadu residents.

Who it is for
Engineers in vehicle and component plants can take the mechanical Nanodegree to learn EV architecture, thermal design and lightweighting.
The PG programme in EV embedded systems prepares you for BMS, motor controller and diagnostics work, with placement support.
Staff on pack lines or in testing can follow the battery and BMS Nanodegree to understand what they are building and checking.
CEVT trains ITI and diploma holders in EV repair and diagnostics, with a 21-day workshop at a DIYguru centre.
Studying from Chennai
Apply from Chennai; our admissions team confirms the fees, EMI options and your batch dates.
Join live classes with EV engineers, then go back to recorded lessons, notes and quizzes whenever you need them.
Work through design calculations, simulations and projects. An optional DIY hardware kit lets you practise on a real control board at home, delivered anywhere in India.
The CEVT and PG programmes include hands-on workshops at our Delhi and Pune centres: batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics on real vehicles. Nearest to Chennai: Pune (DY Patil University campus).
Finish the projects and assessments to earn your certificate, with a verification link you can share with employers.
Certificates
There is no licence in India that every EV technician must hold before working on vehicles. ASDC's EV Service Technician role sits at NSQF level 4 and is one recognised skills benchmark. Carmakers and dealers in Chennai normally run their own high-voltage safety authorisation for staff. Charger installation is electrical work, so it falls to a licensed electrical contractor under Tamil Nadu rules and CEA regulations. Our certificate confirms you finished the training and does not replace any of these.
FAQs
We do not have a centre in Chennai. The nearest are our two Pune centres, in Hinjewadi and at the Ajeenkya DY Patil University campus in Lohegaon, and there is also one in Sultanpur, Delhi.
Yes. Lessons are recorded and live sessions are repeated on the portal, so rotating shifts are manageable. You only need leave for the workshop days.
Start with CEVT, the three-month Certified EV Technician programme for ITI, diploma and polytechnic learners. B.Tech graduates usually suit a Nanodegree or the PG programme instead.
It gives evidence of structured EV study and assessed projects, which helps in interviews. It is not a licence and does not guarantee a job.
Theory, projects and assessments are all online, so you can study from any part of Chennai. Practical days take place at our centres in Pune or Delhi.
Each programme has its own fee, shown in INR on its page. Ask the admissions team for the current amount and any EMI plans.
The best course depends on your background. For most learners in Chennai we suggest the Advanced Nanodegree Certification Program in EV Engineering, Automotive Design, Development, & Dynamic Analysis or the Post Graduate Certification Programme In Electric Vehicle & Embedded System Advanced Engineering; our admissions team can compare options against your experience and goals.
Professional Certification Programmes run for about 3 months, the CEVT technician programme 3 months, Advanced Nanodegrees 6 months and the Post Graduate programme 12 months.
Yes. The CEVT programme is built for ITI, diploma and polytechnic learners and working mechanics: EV batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics for two- and four-wheelers, with a 21-day hands-on workshop at our Delhi or Pune centre.
Tell us your background and we will suggest the right programme and the next batch.
