IMI is training 11,000 students

Almost 11,000 students have now signed up for the Institute of the Motor Industry’s (IMI) training vocational qualifications.

More than 3,000 new candidates signed up for IMI qualifications in November at the institute’s 350 approved assessment centres.

Alan Mackrill, IMI director of learning and skills, said: “The introduction of on-line services, including registration, certificate claims and e-assessment, has allowed the IMI to greatly enhance its customer service and administration processes.”

As well as further growing its student population, the IMI is planning to introduce a new membership package this year specifically aimed at young people aged 25 and under.
