Teach Electric and Hybrid Vehicles
LJ Create’s EV & Hybrid AutoLab training solutions provide a comprehensive pathway for teaching electric and hybrid vehicle technology through hands-on trainers, interactive curriculum, and real-world diagnostics. Each trainer in the Hybrid & EV program line can be implemented as an independent training resource to supplement your class or as part of the full LJ Create EV Innovative Lab.
Using LJ Create’s EV and Hybrid learning resources, you can cover everything from electrical fundamentals and high-voltage safety to batteries, motors, charging systems, CAN bus, and complete vehicle systems.
Introducing the LJ Create Electric Vehicle Lab
LJ Create’s EV & Hybrid AutoLab is a complete, scalable training solution that helps schools build modern automotive programs around electric and hybrid vehicle technology. With hands-on trainers, guided curriculum, and multiple levels of instruction, students develop the practical skills needed to safely diagnose, maintain, and understand today’s electrified vehicles.
EV and Hybrid Learning for Every Level
From electrical fundamentals to complete vehicle systems, these automotive training solutions prepare students with the practical skills needed for careers in today’s electrified transportation industry.
EV Electrical and Electronics Fundamentals
Start with the basics by practicing skills students will need as they explore EV concepts. These areas include: circuit protection; conductors, insulators, and earth return; voltage, current, resistance, and power calculations; DC and AC signals; and more!
Complete Vehicle Systems
Teach the operation of complete EV and Hybrid Vehicle systems using desktop panel trainers. Students can “operate” each type of vehicle, measure what is going on during the various modes of operation, and troubleshoot common problems.
Common EV Sub-Systems
Dive deeper into specific EV sub-systems like motors and drives, batteries, and charging systems to teach students who already have the fundamentals down critical EV sub-systems.
