Durham, Ontario — Last Wednesday, Durham College announced the launch of its new Electric Drive Vehicle Technician (EDVT) program–one of only two programs0 offered in Ontario.

As noted in a media release, “with the automotive sector rapidly transitioning to greener technologies, Durham College’s program is designed to equip graduates with the expertise needed to thrive while meeting the province’s demand for electric vehicle professionals.”

The release further noted that “in addition to technical skills, students will develop critical problem-solving abilities by working on real-world scenarios in state-of-the-art shops, simulating the complexities they’ll encounter in the field. By the time they graduate, they’ll have completed a 56-hour EV capstone project that fuses learning from previous course work in electric and hybrid vehicle technology, offering a hands-on project-based experience.”

Dr. Rebecca Milburn, Executive Dean, Faculty of Skilled Trades and Apprenticeship and Principal at Whitby campus further commented that, “what makes the Electric Drive Vehicle Technician program unique is its focus on both traditional mechanical expertise and the specialized knowledge required for electric and hybrid vehicle systems. Our graduates will be well-positioned to succeed in this growing field.”
