Automotive

Are you interested in cars and complex technology?
Do you have a knack for mechanics but are also interested in electronics? Then this is the vocational training for you!
Automechatronics is about troubleshooting and repairing defective vehicles. Automotive technicians use a wide variety of tools. They range from a multimeter for voltage testing, to a ratchet for (dis)assembling components, to welding machines for body repair.
If you enjoy the large variety of this trade and you are generally interested in technology, a vocational training as an automotive mechatronics technician at KAYEC could be just the right choice to start your career!
