To be eligible for the Vehicle Technician Accredited Assessment (VTAA), also known as the Light Vehicle Inspection or LVI, you need to meet specific DVSA criteria, including:
- A minimum of 4 years’ full-time experience in servicing and repairing the relevant vehicle classes.
- A full and valid UK driving licence for the vehicle classes you intend to test.
- Passing a Basic DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check.
- Being deemed ‘of good repute’ (check out the MOT guide for more info)
This course is ideal for technicians without formal qualifications, those who have misplaced their documents, or skilled workers who’ve moved to the UK and need an accredited qualification.
