Drive your career forward in the Motor Vehicle industry.

The Motor Vehicle industry is constantly evolving, with advancements in technology, sustainability, and safety shaping the future of automotive engineering. Our Motor Vehicle programmes are designed to equip you with the skills, knowledge, and hands-on experience needed to excel in this dynamic field. If you’re passionate about cars and engineering, our courses will prepare you to embark on a fulfilling career in automotive repair, maintenance, and diagnostics.

You will learn essential skills in vehicle maintenance, fault diagnosis, repair techniques, and automotive electronics. With access to industry-standard tools and diagnostic equipment, you will gain practical experience working on real vehicles, developing the technical proficiency and problem-solving abilities highly valued in the automotive sector. Our expert instructors will guide you through key concepts, from engine mechanics and braking systems to electrical components and hybrid technology.

Beyond the workshop, our Motor Vehicle programmes are tailored to help you work towards an apprenticeship, with many students gaining employment that provides real-world experience and invaluable industry contacts. You will have the chance to learn from industry professionals, participate in work-based learning, and build the skills employers seek.

Meet our students Phoebe Mitchell

I chose to study mechanics at Newbury College as it offers a range of practical work to take part in. I enjoy problem solving and practical subjects and my course is ideal for that. So far my favourite part has been doing an engine rebuild, where we get given an engine and have to strip and rebuild the whole thing.
