Free EV charging seminars with Trade Skills 4U live!

Trade Skills 4U, the UK’s leader in electrical training courses is hosting a range of free Electric Vehicle Installer Seminars. Throughout 2019 these seminars will be aimed at both existing installers and new entrants to the industry.

Trade Skills 4U, in conjunction with Rolec EV, a division of Rolec Services that specialises in the design and manufacture of a range of electric vehicle charging solutions have designed these seminars to explain the opportunities available for becoming an EV car charging point installer. They will cover relevant and helpful topics such as how funding for EV charging point installation works, how to get registered in order to draw down funding, how to maximise the EV funding opportunity for installers and their customers and the trainings required to be an EV Charging Point Installer. These 1 hour seminars will be run in the evening from their 4 main training facilities in Gatwick, Warrington, Leeds and Coventry.

As part of the partnership with Rolec, students who successfully pass an EV Installer course with us are automatically registered on the Approved Rolec Installer’s Scheme, where their name will appear on a national database enabling them to work on jobs in the local area.

Carl Bennett Executive Chairman of Trade Skills 4U said: “Following a rise in demand for electric vehicle points across the country, the collaboration between both companies seemed like the perfect match to ensure that skilled electricians are ready to work in this growing sector.”

“By combining experience in training and manufacturing we have created seminars specifically designed to deliver an opportunity to our students. We believe the government’s initiative to eliminate all petrol and diesel cars by 2040 will mean the need for installing electrical vehicle points will rise significantly in the coming years.”

Kieron Alsop, Rolec EV’s Managing Director commented: “The installation of EV Charging points represents a significant business opportunity for the electrical contracting industry.”

“A recent survey undertaken by Emu Analytics confirmed that the UK is in need of a six fold increase in EV charging point deployment over the next 2 or 3 years to cope with the charging demands from the dramatically increasing numbers of Electric Vehicles being registered.”

“As a result of this new business opportunity Rolec EV is delighted to be working closely with, and supporting Trade Skills 4U in developing a range of electrical contractor charge point installation training courses at a number of their sites throughout the UK.”

“The recently opened Rolec EV Training Suite at their flag ship training centre in Leeds highlights the scale of investment and confidence both Rolec and Trade Skills 4U have in this new EV Charging industry.”
