What our Alumni are Saying About Us

“I have a mechanical engineering background with a good knowledge of electronics. This was a much more in depth understanding of how EV systems interact with each other. I definitely would recommend this.” 
— Milan Patel, E-Muscle Cars
“It's tough to take an EV course in school when you are working full time, but it's tough to work with vendors when you are still learning about EV components or don't have a demand to offer them yet. This was a great way for me to break into the industry with an established company like Legacy EV, and partner with them to get the materials I need to do the work I’m looking to do.”
— David Dyck, Masco Sweepers
“1,000 percent recommend this training. I can’t believe there is so much information packed into it! The way it's organized, the teachers, the curriculum, it's just spot on, and there is nothing else like it.”
— Kris Saunders, Extend EV
