Remove Replace And Align Body Parts Training

SAQA US 119741 | NQF 2 | Credits 8 | Duration 5 Days
From $1,242 per delegate

Description

This course equips learners with the skills to safely remove, replace, and align body parts in the context of automotive or mechanical repair. It covers the theoretical principles and practical techniques required to perform these tasks without causing damage or injury. By the end of the course, learners will be able to execute body part alignment procedures in accordance with industry standards.

Learning Outcomes

  • Demonstrate the correct procedures for removing body parts from a vehicle without causing damage.
  • Apply appropriate techniques to replace body parts, ensuring proper fit and alignment.
  • Evaluate the alignment of replaced body parts using specified tools and methods.
  • Implement safety measures to prevent injury and damage during removal and replacement processes.
  • Analyze vehicle manufacturer specifications to determine correct alignment tolerances.
  • Design a step-by-step plan for removing and replacing a specific body part on a given vehicle.

Target Audience

This course is intended for automotive technicians, panel beaters, and mechanics who are responsible for the repair and alignment of vehicle body parts. It is also suitable for apprentices and trainees in the automotive repair industry.

Prerequisites

Practicals

No practicals for this training.

This course is made up of exercises and case studies delivered alongside the theory — no separate practical sessions are required to complete it.

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course and a final summative test at the end.

Daily Exercises — 30%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 30% to the final total.

Final Test — 70%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 70% to the overall mark.

Final Total
Component Out of Weight
Daily Average (multiple choice) 100% 30%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice) 100% 70%
Final Total 100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

Certificate of Completion

Awarded to delegates who achieve an overall mark of 50% or higher on the Final Total (Daily Average 30% + Final Test 70%).

How it works
  • Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
  • Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
  • You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
  • If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.
Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
