About the Course:

This Key Components of Hybrid Systems Training microcredential offers an in-depth, immersive overview of the critical components of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). Through VR and interactive simulations, learners will explore the function, interaction, and maintenance of systems such as electric motors, battery packs, inverters, and hybrid control modules. The course emphasizes the integration of hybrid systems and the roles each component plays in optimizing vehicle performance, energy efficiency, and safety.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify and describe the function of each core hybrid vehicle system component.
  • Understand how electric and combustion power sources operate in series or parallel configurations.
  • Analyze the interaction between the power control unit, inverter, and battery system.
  • Recognize the importance of thermal management in hybrid system operation.
  • Trace energy flow from charging to propulsion through hybrid system components.

Course delivered via LMS and requires an Oculus VR headset for hands-on VR simulations.

Hybrid electric vehicle systems training on power control, inverter and energy flow

At ImmerseLearn, we prepare technicians to work confidently with advanced hybrid vehicle systems. This microcredential course provides foundational knowledge of each major hybrid drivetrain component and how they interact during real-world service and maintenance.

Electric and Engine Integration −
Understand how electric motors and internal combustion engines share or alternate propulsion roles in series, parallel, or blended configurations.
High-Voltage Energy Systems +
Learn the structure and function of the battery pack, inverter, and DC-DC converter, including their role in energy conversion and storage.
Power and Control Flow +
Explore the power control unit and hybrid vehicle control module to understand how energy flow and component timing are managed across systems.
Thermal Management +
Examine the cooling systems responsible for maintaining safe operating temperatures for the battery, inverter, and motor systems.

By completing this training, learners will be able to recognize, describe, and trace the function of all major hybrid vehicle components in a real-world service context, following safety-conscious practices for HEV maintenance and repair.
