Atelier Branché

OUR FORMATIONS

Training on the mechanics and maintenance of an electric vehicle is a must. With high voltage, before working on a vehicle, the technician must, for his own safety and that of others, have followed a recognized training. With the growing trend, many companies and organizations are moving to hybrid or electric vehicles.

Contact us at 450-890-8800 for more information or to register.
