Our Vehicle Technician Accredited
Assessment (VTAA) course has
been designed for technicians
who do not hold a relevant, level
3 qualification or equivalent but
want to become an MOT tester for
class 3, 4, 5 or 7 vehicles.
The course consists of two training
days and one assessment day,
and will certify a technician’s ability
to correctly conduct emission
testing of vehicles, accurately
inspect a vehicle, diagnose faults
and correct repair requirements.
It will also prove their knowledge
of wiring diagrams required for the
electrical systems of the vehicle
being tested, and their skill to
apply it.
Participants will be assessed on:
• Engine and emission systems
• Electrical systems
• Braking systems
• Steering, wheels and tyres
• Suspension systems
After completing this course,
technicians using this route to
become an MOT tester will need at
least 4 years’ full-time employment
in the service and repair of class
4 & 7 vehicles, a current and full
UK driving licence, and have
no criminal offences connected
with the motor trade, violence or
intimidation, in order to complete
their MOT Tester training.
