TRIANGLE OF CHESTERFIELD LTD
About the Role
All Kia apprenticeships are nationally recognised. In addition, apprentices will be provided with the opportunity to achieve additional qualifications that support apprentices' career development, allowing them to be a recognised & accredited Kia Dealer employee! With industry-leading pass rates, now is a great time to join us.
The Kia Light Vehicle Technician Apprenticeship programme will support the apprentice to gain the knowledge and skills needed to become a fully qualified and accredited Kia vehicle technician, qualifying them to be responsible for:
- Servicing vehicles
- Repairing and replacing faulty parts and components
- Advising the Service Advisor about faults and required repairs
- Contact with customers about work required
- Diagnosing and repairing complex vehicle faults
The Light Vehicle Progression Pathway for the Kia Apprenticeships means that apprentices will undertake their Level 2 Autocare Standard (if not already achieved) and will then be automatically enrolled onto the Level 3 Light Vehicle Standard
Giving apprentices the opportunity to qualify for basic servicing sooner!
Upon completion of this apprenticeship, apprentices can continue their learning journey by upskilling as Master Technicians.
