Wirral Metropolitan College’s Motorcycle Technology Technical Centre has won accreditation for a new industry training qualification, just days after the schemes National launch.
Major advances in technology have prompted a collective effort from the motorcycle industry to ensure technicians remain at the cutting edge of technical expertise for the benefit of increasing numbers of motorcyclists. The ATA (Automotive Technician Accreditation) for motorcycles has been developed by the leading manufacturers in association with the Motor Industry (IMI), the professional association for the motor industry governing the scheme and the Motor Cycle Industry (MCIA), which is endorsing the initiative.
Yamaha UK will be using the Motorcycle Technology Centre between 6th-8th March to train Yamaha dealer technicians from across the North West.
