Quick answer: For EV training in Singapore with SkillsFuture support, K-Tech Auto Solution runs the Intermediate Hybrid & EV Technology Training Programme with Temasek Polytechnic. It is a 2-day course (8 hours hands-on and theory plus 8 hours e-learning) covering high-voltage safety, battery packs, EV aircon and battery testing. Eligible Singaporeans and PRs can use SkillsFuture Credit.
More hybrids and EVs are rolling into Singapore workshops every month, and many technicians are still learning high-voltage work on the job. That is risky for the technician and the business. If you are looking for EV training in Singapore that is SkillsFuture eligible, this guide explains what our Intermediate Hybrid & EV course covers, who it suits, how SkillsFuture Credit applies and how to book a place for your team.
Why do Singapore workshops need EV training now?
Workshops need EV training because hybrid and electric vehicles carry high-voltage systems that conventional training does not cover, and these cars are becoming a normal part of the service mix. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has set out Singapore’s plan for all new car registrations to be cleaner-energy models from 2030, so the share of EVs and hybrids on the road will keep growing.
For a workshop, this creates two pressures:
- Safety: an untrained technician working near orange high-voltage cabling or a battery pack faces electric shock and arc-flash hazards.
- Revenue: workshops that cannot service hybrids and EVs will turn away jobs that come back every year, from battery health checks to EV aircon servicing.
Training your technicians is the first step before you invest in EV diagnostic tools, battery lifts or a dedicated EV bay.
What does the Intermediate Hybrid & EV Technology course cover?
The course covers hybrid and EV fundamentals, high-voltage safety, hands-on battery work, EV aircon and testing. It is delivered by the K-Tech Technical Training Academy together with Temasek Polytechnic, and the syllabus is aligned with the standards of the Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI), UK.
| Module | What technicians learn |

| Safety, PPE and HV hazards | Personal protective equipment, high-voltage hazards and risk management before touching a vehicle |
| Battery pack assembly and disassembly | Hands-on work on a battery pack under supervision |
| EV aircon maintenance | Servicing air-conditioning systems on electrified vehicles |
| Battery testing | Testing methods for high-voltage batteries |
| Dynamic performance | How electrified powertrains perform on the road |
| Emissions overview | Emissions systems on hybrid vehicles |

Who should attend EV training in Singapore?
The course suits anyone in the trade who will work on, supervise or plan for hybrid and EV servicing. In practice, that includes:
- Automotive technicians who are starting to see hybrids and EVs in the bay
- Mechanics and engineers looking to move up into EV-capable roles
- Workshop owners and service managers who need to understand HV safety rules before setting up an EV bay
- Fleet maintenance teams looking after electric vans, taxis or company cars
- Aircon specialists who want to service electric compressors on EVs safely
If your technicians already work on hybrids without formal HV training, this is the course to start with.
How does SkillsFuture Credit work for this EV course?
Eligible Singapore Citizens and PRs can use SkillsFuture Credit to offset the fee for our Intermediate Hybrid & EV Technology course. SkillsFuture Credit is a government-funded credit for Singaporeans, administered by SkillsFuture Singapore, and claims are submitted through the MySkillsFuture portal. Eligibility and credit balances are set by the government, so check the latest rules on the official SkillsFuture website before you register.
A simple checklist for technicians:
- Confirm your eligibility and credit balance on MySkillsFuture (log in with Singpass)
- Call or WhatsApp us on 6264 3832 to confirm the next intake and course fee
- Register for the course with us
- Submit your SkillsFuture Credit claim before the course starts, following the portal’s instructions
- Pay any remaining balance not covered by your credit
Employers sending several staff should talk to us early so we can plan seats for the intake.
What should a workshop do after EV training?
After training, workshops should put the right equipment and procedures in place so newly trained technicians can work safely and productively. A trained team with no HV-capable tools still cannot take EV jobs.
Typical next steps:
- Set up an EV work zone with signage, insulated tools and PPE storage
- Add EV diagnostics – the Autel MaxiSYS MS909EV pairs an EVDiag Box with MaxiFlash VCI/J2534 for high-voltage battery analysis, and the EV Diagnostics Upgrade Kit adds battery pack analysis to existing Autel tools (see our Autel range)
- Plan for battery removal – the Thinkcar EVP501 mobile EV battery lift is rated to 1,500kg
- Check your aircon equipment – newer EVs may use R1234yf and electric compressors; read our R1234yf refrigerant guide
- Add ADAS capability – many EVs come with driver-assistance cameras and radars that need calibration after repairs (ADAS calibration training)
