Rapid technological advances and population growth are causing global energy shortages and environmental problems. All countries in the world are making great efforts to develop energy-saving vehicles, especially focusing on the production of environmentally friendly vehicles that run on electric energy. In the very near future, there will be a shortage of qualified personnel in the field of battery electric vehicle (BEV) failure diagnosis, maintenance and repair, electric vehicle production, and after-sales services, which will be one of the leading professions in the global trend. This study was conducted to evaluate the practical skills of individuals studying in Karaman province within the scope of training the qualified personnel needed by the sector in the field of maintenance and design in the field of electric vehicle technologies. The individuals underwent skills tests based on 10 application skill criteria, encompassing a total of 112 subtasks. The tests revealed that 81% of the participants possessed general application skills and exhibited the characteristics of EV technical personnel. It has been determined that adequate vocational and technical training has been provided to meet the personnel demand in the field, aligned with the projected widespread use of EVs soon.
