Autodiagnos, the diagnostic equipment supplier, has launched a range of training courses for scan tools aimed at all levels.

The company is offering a one-day starter course called ‘serial diagnostics/using scan tools’ for £175 and a more in depth two- day course for skilled technicians for £325.

Each of the courses has space for eight people and will be held at Coleg Gwent in Newport three times each month. A spokesperson from Autodiagnos said the courses could also be run out of other colleges in the UK if there was enough demand.

Autodiagnos said it created the courses in reaction to the increasing presence of complex electronic controls features in every party of modern cars.
