The Vehicle Accident Repair course is mainly aimed at switched on individuals who are looking to enter into the Vehicle Accident Repair Sector. This highly paid skill is transferable, meaning that there is a wide ranging list of careers that this qualification is applicable as an entry point.

Starting at Level 1, a student will be gradually introduced to different skills by time served industry specialists. Students will initially start on small projects and gradually build their skills, until they are ready to take on more challenging work and projects.

If students are successful and achieve the level one, at progression, they can choose the pathway they want to take in the industry of the panel or paint pathways. At Level 2, the student will learn further techniques and skills and knowledge related to vehicle accident repair, whilst exploring the subject in a deeper more specialised delivery model.

This is also the point where we will be looking to place students in an apprenticeship if so required.

The Course runs from September to June for 35 weeks. There are 15 units to be completed to achieve the qualification. Skills are taught during practical sessions in a simulated industry standard Bodyshop environment and the knowledge or theory side is taught in automotive themed learning spaces.
GCSE’s are needed for this course, preferably in maths, English and a science is desirable. You should have a keen interest in the field of vehicle accident repairs.
Throughout the duration of this course, practical and theory aspects of the course are delivered. You will complete one online assessment during the year, to check you’ve learnt the appropriate knowledge. You’ll also be building up a portfolio of evidence of your practical tasks and written assessments on the IMI E-portfolio.
Performance is tracked and reviewed by Vehicle Accident Repair tutors at specific points during the term. Satisfactory performance will be required in all aspects of the course for progression to Level 2.
