This is the mandatory annual assessment for MOT testers working on Class 1 and Class 2 vehicles, which is written by people who are MOT testers and do like motorbikes.

It ensures testers remain up to date with current testing standards, procedures, and DVSA requirements. Completion of this assessment is required to maintain your MOT testing status.

All MITA courses and assessments are developed by professionals who have done the job — or are still doing it. That means the content reflects real-world testing, written in a way that makes sense to working testers, not academic theory.

The assessment is designed to be clear, practical, and accessible, and can be completed either online or in a classroom environment with your approved regional training provider.

This qualification is the mandatory annual assessment for MOT testers working on Class 1 and Class 2 vehicles (motorcycles). It is designed to ensure that testers remain current with the latest MOT testing standards, procedures, and DVSA requirements, supporting continued competence within the MOT scheme.

Developed by industry professionals with direct experience in MOT testing, the assessment reflects real-world practices and focuses on practical, relevant knowledge rather than theoretical concepts. The content is structured to be clear, accessible, and directly applicable to day-to-day testing activities.

Completion of this assessment is required to maintain MOT tester status for Classes 1 and 2, providing assurance that testers continue to meet the expected standards set by the DVSA.

You are allowed up to 1 hour to complete the assessment. Additional time may be available where reasonable adjustments are required.

This qualification is delivered via MITA-approved centres and can be accessed either digitally or through classroom-based environments.

Method: Online Multiple-Choice E-Proctored Examination (following completion of training)
Grading: Pass/Fail

You must already be a qualified MOT Tester authorised for Class 1&2. If you qualified during the current training year (1 April to 31 March), you do not need to complete the annual assessment for this year unless your tester status has lapsed (which is pretty unusual: if you need more guidance see Appendix 6 of the MOT Testing Guide).

Successful completion of this assessment allows learners to continue testing MOT vehicles in Classes 1 and 2 and remain compliant with DVSA annual requirements. It also supports continued professional practice within the MOT scheme and ongoing development within the automotive sector.
