Diploma in High-Value Marketing and Storytelling — studying from India

India has a strong heritage of classic vehicles, motorcycles and machinery, with active enthusiast communities and specialist workshops in Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Bengaluru and Chennai. Interest in vintage cars and motorcycles, including classic Ambassador and Royal Enfield models, has grown steadily. Restoration work combines historical research, metalwork, mechanical rebuilding and conservation techniques. While formal regulation is limited, vehicle registration and roadworthiness fall under state transport authorities, and the Automotive Research Association of India provides technical expertise. Engineers and craftspeople in this area focus on restoration, documentation and technical authenticity.

Fees for India: ₹190,000 (Indian Rupee), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

  • Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS)

Questions from India

Is there a recognised body in India for classic vehicle restoration?

There is no statutory title for classic restoration in India. Vehicle standards and registration involve bodies such as the Automotive Research Association of India, and enthusiast clubs operate informally. SEIUM's qualification is a private one and is not accredited by any national body, so its value depends on how employers and clients see it.

Which employers or clients in India use classic restoration skills?

Specialist restoration workshops, collectors, classic car dealers, and heritage motoring firms are typical employers and clients. Work is often based on reputation and a portfolio of completed restorations. A private qualification may support your background, but clients and employers will judge your actual craftsmanship.

Can I study this part-time from India, and is it in English?

The programme is 100% online and taught in English, so you need a working level of English. You can study from home anywhere in India without a student visa, and an assigned technical tutor supports you. Fees are payable in instalments, and employer sponsorship is possible if your workplace will fund it.
