FAQs
How many days do I need to attend the training centre?
You will need to attend the centre for 8 days (over 2 consecutive weeks) to complete the practical training and assessments required for this course.
What are my next steps after the C&G 2365 Level 3 course?
After successful completion, your next step would be to enrol on the Level 3 NVQ 2357 in Electrical Installations.
I have completed the C&G Level 2 2365 at another training centre, can I enrol onto this course?
Absolutely! You will be required to send us a copy of your Level 2 2365 certificate upon enrolment.
Can I work as an electrician with a C&G 2365 Level 3 Diploma?
Although it will give you fundamental knowledge to kick-start your electrical career, the diploma itself does not qualify you to work as an electrician. After completing the course, you can work as an electrician’s mate, or continue your electrical training with the C&G 2357 NVQ Level 3 course, including your AM2 assessment. This will enable you to be recognised as a qualified electrician and eligible to apply for an ECS Gold Card.

City and Guilds offers the opportunity for you to take your exam at home, using their remote invigilation service. A member of their team will manage and invigilate your exam remotely through their online exam platform. For more information on this service, please read the remote invigilation candidate guide, or watch the demonstration video.
Do I need to complete the online training before I can attend in centre?
Yes, you will need to complete 4 modules of the course online before attending your in-centre training; Unit 302 Principles of Electrical Science, Unit 303 Fault Diagnosis & Rectification, Unit 304 Inspection, Testing & Commissioning & Unit 308 Career Awareness. The remaining online modules can be completed before or after your in-centre training.
Our four stage process
We have designed a route to help you become a qualified electrician in the most straightforward and flexible way possible. By starting with our Domestic Electrician Course you will be taught all the necessary skills and knowledge to start working as a domestic installer straight away, allowing you to immediately start building your experience whilst earning money. Many of the skills learnt during the first stage will not only be needed when starting out to become an electrician, but also necessary to transfer into the next stages and qualifications.
When you are ready, you will then complete the Level 2 2365 diploma, followed by the C&G 2365 Level 3 Diploma in Electrical Installations. Both of these qualifications then allow you to transfer the units achieved into the the NVQ qualification, essentially completing all the theory units of the NVQ, leaving you with just the evidence portfolio to build and complete.
