AVTECC Certification Event

AVTECC EV Safe® Certification Event – Technician Skills Validation

The AVTECC EV Safe® Certification is a hands-on, skills-based credentialing opportunity designed to validate technician competence in EV safety procedures. This certification ensures technicians are qualified to safely interact with, service, and support high-voltage EV platforms in accordance with industry standards and OEM-recommended practices.

During the event, each participating technician will be provided with a scheduled, one-on-one assessment appointment. This individualized format ensures a fair and focused evaluation environment where candidates can confidently demonstrate their mastery of key competencies. These include:

• Proper use of personal PPE

• Identification and mitigation of high-voltage hazards

• Verification of system voltage state (safe vs. live)

• Use of manufacturer-specific service procedures

• Application of lockout/tagout procedures

• Correct tool usage and equipment inspection

Certified AVTECC proctors will observe and document each technician’s performance using standardized rubrics derived from a job task analysis and aligned with industry expectations. Upon successful demonstration of all required skills, technicians will be awarded the EV Safe® Certification, an industry-recognized credential signaling their readiness to safely work on high-voltage vehicles.

This event structure supports high-quality assessment while maintaining individual attention and performance integrity—ensuring that certification is earned, not assumed. AVTECC’s performance-based model is trusted by employers to represent verified technical competence in the rapidly evolving EV service landscape.
