Copart UK has become an IMI-approved EV training provider.
It is now able to deliver IMI TechSafe electric and hybrid vehicle training across its nationwide Operation Centres.
Copart will initially focus on Level 2 and Level 3 training, but plans to expand its offering in line with further sustainability developments, such as hydrogen vehicle awareness.
Sarah Oakman, Training Manager at Copart, said: “We are now fully focused on establishing Copart as a high-quality and high pass rate centre for EV courses, initially operating out of our HQ in Bedfordshire with a view to setting up further locations to cover the north and south of England in the future.”
Duncan MacRae, Head of Performance, Quality and Risk, added: “At Copart, we continually invest in training and upskilling our teammates to ensure that their knowledge is always relevant and up to date, enabling us to maximise value and deliver a world-class quality level of service to our customers, whilst delivering our Plan Net Zero sustainability commitment.
“With the electric car parc continuing to grow and evolve, it’s vital that we remain strongly focused on delivering specialist training alongside the EV handling infrastructure, equipment, and processes we’ve already established over the last decade.”
