The Vehicle Body Repair and Alignment Apprenticeship provides prospective body repair and alignment technicians with the necessary skills and knowledge to carry out the role of a modern automotive technician.
Units covered include:
When studying a motor vehicle qualification, the apprentice will be assessed on various stages of technology and maintenance, including health and safety, engineering skills, going on to remove and replace body panels, repairing major panels, carrying out MIG brazing, MIG/MAG welding, spot welding, bonding, aluminium repair and rectifying body misalignment.
Apprentices are assessed through practical observations, both in the workplace and at GTG Training. They'll also complete online tests and be expected to submit job card evidence. Apprentices will also complete vocational training in the workplace and will attend GTG Training's purpose-built motor vehicle workshop on a block-release basis for underpinning knowledge and practical testing.
