Cytech One Practical Cycle Course
Would you like your shop floor staff to have the flexibility to help out when the workshop is overrun with repairs?
Would you like your staff to have some basic mechanical skills combined with customer service skills to enable them to competently book in repair work?
Qualification Summary
The Cytech One Practical qualification is designed as the logical progression from Cytech One Theory (Cytech Technical One Theory certificate of achievement).
Just as important as having a good level of mechanical ability though, is that each member of staff has a good grasp of customer service within the retail environment to help you ensure your customer has the most positive experience possible.
ATG Training have many years experience in taking individuals of all skill levels and tailoring the training delivery and environment to suit. It will give the leaner a comprehensive grounding in what is required to excel in the cycle trade and inspire them to develop their skills further.
The course will consist of classroom and workshop tuition followed by a practical assessment of the knowledge gained in the cycle workshop.

Considering further skills development now?
If you are considering further developing your skills to the Cytech Two at a future time, it is worth considering undertaking that course now, as Cytech Two 10 day course, includes all the elements of Cytech One and it is more economical than booking the two courses independently.
