Course information
WHAT IS IRTEC?
IRTEC is recognition of an individual’s current competence, and their commitment to an ethical code of conduct in the commercial vehicle, trailer and passenger carrying vehicle industries.
Technicians who take irtec assessments are tested on their theoretical and practical skills and, if successful, are awarded an IRTEC licence. An IRTEC licence certifies the individual rather than the employer and as irtec is based on current competence, licence`s expire after five years.
The accreditation provides a national benchmark of skill which may be used to identify training needs and also in the recruitment of technicians. IRTEC can be used by individuals and employers as a recognised development path to allow technicians to further their skills and knowledge in the subsector in which they operate. Employers can be confident that technicians are fairly but rigorously assessed through the Quality Assurance of a nationally recognised Awarding Organisation, thus providing consistency of the assessment process.
irtec is delivered by a partnership that includes IRTE (Institute of Road Transport Engineers), The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) and IMI Awards.
*Duration - 2 days for accreditation or 1 day for re-accreditation (no theory training for reaccreditation although some prefer the 2 days to brush up on the theory)
