Are you an Automotive technician with the talent to compete on a world stage?

Do you have what it takes to rise to the top in a UK wide search for the finest auto industry technicians?

If your answer is Yes, Skillauto can provide you with the platform you need to showcase your skills.

Competitions are about finding the 'best of the best' and the competitive nature of humankind means that certain talented individuals will always strive to develop their skills in an effort to beat the opposition.
For the individual, the rewards can be fantastically self satisfying. For employers, highly adept employees contribute to the success and profitability of the company.

Everyone benefits from competition as it ensures the constant development of technology, quality of goods and services provided.

Skillauto's search for the best is through national Automotive Technician competitions, which we run in the following disciplines
  • Light vehicle (car) repair and maintenance
  • Young Panel Technician of the Year
  • Young Painter of the Year
The 'best of the best' at Skillauto also get the chance to try out for the WorldSkills competition which is held every two years. The 2009 event was held in Canada with UK automotive competitors scooping a bronze medal for Autobody Repair and two medallions of excellence.

In 2011 the event will move to London. This will provide UK technicians with the added incentive of achieving honours on home soil. Find out more here.

Are you capable of winning the highest honours in the UK Auto industry, or maybe even think you're ready to compete at an international level?

The 2009-10 Light Vehicle and Panel and Paint competitions are now open for entries.
