Shorterm Group have designed a paid upskilling programme that takes experienced light vehicle mechanics, car, PCV and HGV mechanics and upskills them to be highly competent HGV/PSV/Bus technicians. It is a joint programme between us and a few of the largest British based Bus/Coach/HGV companies.
This is a 1-year paid "work and learn" programme.
The training programme consists of 24 separate planned on the job (OTJ) training practical assessments across the year.
