With access to hundreds of videos and interactive simulations, and theory assessments, online learning is a feature of the new programme that can be accessed at any time and from any device.

MITO chief executive Janet Lane says she’s “delighted to offer online learning” as part of the new course.

“It delivers theory content in an interactive, dynamic and visually engaging way for our apprentices and their employers.

“It has been developed in close consultation with the heavy automotive industry and designed for apprentices that wish to become fully-qualified heavy automotive technicians,” Lane says.

The Level 3 programme, which takes 18 months to complete, is now open for enrolments. The Level 4 programme, which will feature strands in road transport, plant and equipment, agricultural equipment, and materials handling equipment, will be available in mid-2018.
