The Motosport Technician program provides students with the training to develop tool and equipment operation skills related to marine and outdoor power equipment. Students will learn to maintain, repair, or rebuild motorcycles, snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles, and outboard motors. Students will gain foundational knowledge of vehicle systems, including tune-up, diagnosis, and repair.
This program is accredited with Level 1 in Marine and Power Sports, through Apprenticeship Manitoba.
The Motosport Technician program may feature a Work Practicum placement in a local workplace which provides students with on-the-job training and experience. Students will apply skills learned in the classroom and develop new skills through working within an actual employer’s facility.
MITT does not guarantee practicum placements and, in such situations, the Institute will explore alternative options for program completion with a student.
Students who successfully complete the accredited program with an accumulative average of 70% or better in the trade subjects and level for which the program was accredited, gain employment and register as an apprentice within two years of graduating, will receive credit for Level 1 in-school technical training and 900 hours in the Marine and Outdoor Power Equipment Technician Apprenticeship program.
Trade certification for Motorsport Technician is available, but voluntary, in all provinces and the territories. In Manitoba, Motorsport Technicians is classified under the Marine and Outdoor Power Equipment Technician apprenticeship trade.
