Kia Light Vehicle Technician Apprentice - High Wycombe

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

Kia Apprenticeship Programme operates using a 12-week cycle. Within each 12-week period, apprentices will receive the following teaching, learning and assessment:

• One college block attendance with teaching delivered by dedicated Tutors (both via Virtual Classroom Training and face-to-face at the Kia Academy in Derby)
• One workplace visit face-to-face with their dedicated Skills Coach
• One tripartite progress review involving the Apprentice, Skills Coach and their workplace mentor
• One 1:1 teaching session with their dedicated Skills Coach via virtual classroom

• Upon completion of the Kia Technician Apprenticeship, apprentices have the opportunity to transition into Senior Technician, Master Technician, EV Specialist, and Service/Aftersales Manager roles
• Kia is committed to growing the automotive talent pool with Electric Vehicle Specialists

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!
