Hybrid 101
2010-2011 Schedule
Online Training!
More and more we hear that there are shop owners and technicians out there who are interested in hybrids and working on hybrids but they are not able to lose an employee for a day or more or take time off work. We have developed our new Hybrid 101 online class for just those individuals.
The class is organized so that an individual who started off with some automotive knowledge but no Hybrid experience could start from class one (Aug. 25th 2010, 2-3pm EST) and by the 11th class, be comfortable and confident working with all makes and models of hybrids.
Now you can get all the benefits of Craig Van Batenburg’s popular Hybrid training from the comfort of your own shop.

- Miss a class? watch the recording online later and Craig is available to ask questions anytime!
- Sign in from any computer with a fast internet connection
- Be ready for Hybrids with the knowledge of safe practices that will make you money!
- At the end of the class, receive signed certificates of completion to help promote your new skills.
