EV skills in Thiruvananthapuram
Kerala approved its first EV policy in March 2019, with a plan to move KSRTC's fleet of about 6,000 buses to electric by 2025 and to begin with pilots in Thiruvananthapuram. KSRTC-SWIFT began electric city circular services on 1 August 2022, including a route linking the railway station and Thampanoor with both airport terminals.
The e-buses were supplied by the city corporation under the Smart City project. In December 2025, the corporation objected to KSRTC running some of them outside city limits, which shows how much the buses matter locally. Running and maintaining such fleets calls for technicians who know high-voltage systems.
KSRTC-SWIFT has run electric buses on Thiruvananthapuram's city circular routes since August 2022.
The corporation's e-buses were bought under the Smart City project for use within the city.
Kerala has PM E-DRIVE funding for 335 new charging stations, run through KSEB, as of 2026.

Studying from Thiruvananthapuram
Apply from Thiruvananthapuram; 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 Thiruvananthapuram: Pune (DY Patil University campus).
Finish the projects and assessments to earn your certificate, with a verification link you can share with employers.
Certificates
Kerala does not license EV technicians, and no national EV licence exists. For a skills reference, ASDC publishes NSQF qualifications such as Electric Vehicle Service Technician (level 4). Bus operators train and authorise their own staff for high-voltage work. Charger and building wiring must be done by a licensed electrical contractor under CEA rules. Our certificate shows training completed, nothing more.
FAQs
No. Learners from the city do their workshop days at our Pune centres or at Sultanpur in Delhi.
Yes. Live classes run in the evenings and at weekends, and recordings cover the rest.
Electronics engineers usually choose the embedded Nanodegree or the PG programme in EV embedded systems. Diploma and ITI holders should start with CEVT.
It is proof of assessed EV training and projects you can show in interviews. It is not a licence or a job guarantee.
You learn online from home and travel only for the practical workshop.
The fee for each programme is on its page. Admissions can tell you the current fee and whether EMI is offered.
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.
