EV skills in Houston
Houston METRO put its first battery-electric buses into regular service in 2024, starting with the Bellaire Quickline. It has federal funding for 20 electric and 14 hydrogen fuel cell buses and is working towards buying only zero-emission buses by 2030.
Evolve Houston, a non-profit set up in 2018 through the city's Climate Action Plan, relaunched with a microgrant programme backed by General Motors and bp. Across Texas, the number of registered EVs more than tripled to nearly 457,000 between 2022 and 2025.
METRO has funding for 20 battery-electric and 14 hydrogen fuel cell buses.
METRO aims to buy only zero-emission buses from 2030.
Registered EVs in Texas rose to nearly 457,000 by 2025, more than three times the 2022 figure.
METRO has raised doubts about how electric buses cope with Houston heat and grid stability, which makes thermal and energy management practical topics.

Who it is for
The Electrical Nanodegree turns power-systems knowledge into EV modelling skills; the Battery & BMS Nanodegree covers cells and thermal management.
The charging technology and hydrogen programme covers fuel cell basics alongside charging, a fit for a city already working on hydrogen.
The Data Science Nanodegree applies your analytics background to battery and fleet data.
The EV Business Nanodegree helps you plan charging stations or EV service work in a car-dependent metro area.
Studying from Houston
Apply from Houston, and our admissions team shares the fees, payment options and batch dates for your country.
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; ask the team about shipping to your country.
Some programmes include hands-on workshops at our centres in India for work on batteries, motors, controllers and diagnostics.
Finish the projects and assessments to earn your certificate, with a verification link you can share with employers.
Certificates
Shops and fleets in Houston rely on ASE credentials such as the L3 hybrid/electric specialist test and on their own high-voltage authorisation, usually following NFPA 70E. Energy-sector engineers will already know employer-led electrical safety rules; our certificate adds EV knowledge but is not a qualification for live high-voltage work.
FAQs
Yes. The course is online and recorded, so rotations, shifts or long office days need not stop you from progressing.
India is 10.5 hours ahead of Houston in summer and 11.5 hours in winter. Live sessions may fall early in the morning or overnight, and you can catch up from the recording.
Yes. The charging technology and hydrogen programme includes fuel cell vehicles, and the battery programmes cover cells, packs and BMS.
It shows you have taken structured EV training and completed projects, which helps explain a career move. Employers will still weigh your experience and interviews most.
You can buy the optional DIY electronics kit separately; ask the team about shipping to the USA. In-person workshops run only at DIYguru centres in India, not in Texas.
Contact admissions and they will share the fees and payment options for learners in the US.
Live classes are scheduled in Indian Standard Time, and Houston is 11 hours 30 minutes behind India (IST). A class at 7:00 pm IST starts at 7:30 am your time. Most sessions are recorded to your learner portal, so you can catch up when a class falls outside your hours.
The best course depends on your background. For most learners in Houston we suggest the Advanced Nanodegree Certification Program in EV Engineering, Design, Simulations, and Analysis or the PCP in Charging Tech & Hydrogen Fuel Cell; 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.
We do not run a campus in Houston. The programmes are taught live online, so you can join from anywhere in Houston; hands-on workshops, where a programme includes them, take place at our centres in India.
Yes. The CEVT programme covers EV batteries, motors, controllers, charging and diagnostics for two- and four-wheelers, with an optional hands-on workshop in India. Always follow your employer's high-voltage safety rules before working on a vehicle.
Electrical and electronics engineers usually pick the EV modelling or battery and BMS Nanodegrees, mechanical engineers the EV automotive design Nanodegree, and embedded or software engineers the embedded systems or ADAS & AUTOSAR tracks.
