Our new City & Guilds Accredited Programme Specialist Auto Locksmith Training Course is ideal for those seeking a slightly different career path to standard locksmithing, and existing locksmiths who want to set themselves apart from competitors. This is a comprehensive course which will provide you with a wide range of vehicle related locksmithing skills.
Our fully hands on auto course will give you the skill and knowledge required to gain entry to over 95% of vehicles you could be called out to today – including a mix of both old and new. We feel that it’s important not just to teach entry techniques, but also to give a firm understanding of the workings of auto locks which is way we show our students how to strip down, identify, service, repair, rebuild and re-key vehicle locking mechanisms.
