Who we are

Nick Ward has spent [CONFIRM WITH CLIENT: number of years] working as an automotive technician, He started Tasman Group Tas after recognising a gap in the Tasmanian automotive training market: technicians needing ARC licensing or EV depower qualifications had to either travel interstate, or train with instructors who had left the workshop floor years ago.


Nick's approach is different. His training team combines more than 50 years of industry experience between them, and when they are not training, they are still out servicing air conditioning systems and carrying out EV and hybrid depowers in a real workshop. That means the training reflects what is actually happening in the trade right now, not what was current five or ten years ago.



Tasman Group Tas holds an ARC Licence (AU066294) and issues certification through SRTA Life and Rescue (RTO Code 45278), so every course completed here is nationally recognised and  compliant.

  • Compliance: every course meets national units and licensing requirements
  • Accessibility: training delivered locally, so Tasmanian technicians are not stuck travelling interstate
  • Straight talking: clear information on what you need before you turn up, and what you walk away with
