From cars to garden tools, the electrification revolution is reshaping the world around us. Now, it is reaching deeper into the industries supported by BAGMA members. Over the past decade, the transition from the internal combustion engine to electric vehicles and battery-powered equipment has accelerated and it is showing no signs of slowing down. This shift offers clear advantages: lower emissions, reduced noise, fewer moving parts, and increasingly, lower running costs. But for many working in sales, service, and support of traditional machinery, electrification also brings a degree of uncertainty. Recent technologies mean new challenges and for those unfamiliar with high-voltage systems, the stakes can be high.
Recognising this growing need, BAGMA has collaborated with industry partners to develop a new 1-day practical training course focused on off highway electric vehicles (OHEV) and electric outdoor power equipment (EOPE).
The course is designed to help technicians, sales staff, delivery drivers, and workshop personnel gain a working knowledge of:
- Practical skills for safely working with high-voltage systems.
- Confidence in handling and moving EV battery packs safely.
- Awareness of legal obligations and best practices.
- A certificate of attendance recognised for internal compliance and safety audits.
