Hudson Valley Community College collaborated with the Corporación Educativa Automotriz (CEA) from Costa Rica to develop a five-day intensive electric vehicle train-the-trainer programme for their automotive technician instructors. The course contains introductory lectures to present the theory and operation of EVs and HEVs, laboratory experiments and computer workshops.
The initial objective of the initiative was to provide training to CEA’s Automotive Instructors to assist them in teaching analytical and hands-on skills in diagnosing and repairing Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) and EVs to their students while also introducing autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles. However, the objective of the programme has expanded. The second cohort of participants included advanced automotive technician students and participants from other countries, namely El Salvador, Ecuador and Mexico.
