Stay Qualified and Competitive in the Motor Trade
If you work in the motor trade, as a mechanic, MOT tester, body repair worker, or garage owner, it’s important to keep your skills and certificates up to date.
At Blackpool and The Fylde College (B&FC), we offer a range of IMI-approved automotive courses to help you stay qualified and confident in your job.
You can choose from new or renewal courses, electric and hybrid vehicle training, and other specialist options. Our courses are flexible, so you can fit them around your work and personal life.
New Whitehills automotive industry training facility
The Northern Automotive Training Academy (NATA) has a new home. We’ve signed a lease on a dedicated facility at Whitehills Business Park, just off the end of the M55 in Blackpool. Improved access and the ability to focus entirely on industry training and accreditation have been at the heart of this decision and has enabled us to equip centre entirely for the trade.
We will still be delivering IMI accredited Panel and Paint in the bodyshop at our Bispham campus, but for everything else industry focused, Whitehills will be our base.
Benefits

Gain specialist certifications to expand your workshop services
Train around your business and customer commitments
Learn in professional-grade facilities
Future-proof your skills with EV, hybrid, and ADAS training
