The Skills Certificate in Automotive Mechanics & Electrics at IBC College equips trainees with
the technical knowledge, practical skills, and professional attitudes required to diagnose, repair,
and maintain modern motor vehicles. The programme provides a strong foundation in
automotive systems, workshop practice, material technology, technical drawing, and
electrical/electronic principles. It prepares trainees to meet the demands of the rapidly evolving
automotive industry in both the formal and informal sectors.
The programme recognises the increasing complexity of motor vehicles due to technological
advancement and innovation. Trainees engage in practical learning through workshop sessions,
demonstrations, and industrial attachment, enabling them to confidently handle tools and
equipment, interpret technical information, apply safety standards, and execute repair procedures
to industry expectations. Emphasis is placed on producing competent artisans capable of
contributing to productivity, safety, and efficiency within automotive operations.
As trainees advance, they develop competencies in dismantling and assembling vehicle systems,
