Last week marked a significant milestone for Omoda / Jaecoo UK, as the company held it’s 2025 Skills Competition at Emtec, one of the buildings at Nottingham College’s Ruddington campus an ideal venue dedicated to automotive excellence. The event brought together top talent from the brand’s dealer network, showcasing technical skill, precision and innovation.
This skills competition is to establish a technician to attend the Global Skills competition at Omoda & Jaecoo Headquarters in China. We asked all dealer technicians to complete an online assessment; we then took the top 12 as finalists to take part in the skills competition. Testing them over the two days on various tasks including a vehicle check, a vehicle non-start fault and a Hybrid vehicle high voltage system fault.

"The event wouldn’t have been possible without the generous support of Nottingham College" Green added.
“We are grateful to Nottingham College for giving us a place to make this possible. Providing the workshops, all printed materials, equipment on the day, food and drink for the contestants and the overall setting up of the event,” said Green.
