Why are your courses so cheap?
The simple answer is we are not cheap and there is no catch, some of our competitors are simply over pricing and uncompetitive! We manage all of our business costs with close scrutiny so that we can keep all of our overheads as low as possible and not pass any additional costs on to our customers. This in turn allows us to be competitive and realistic with our course prices.
Can you help me after the course?
Once you have completed the course you will be invited to our unique, customer only forum. This is made up entirely of our previous customers who have all completed the same course as you. It can act as a great place for you to network with other electricians, and provides a warm and inclusive environment. We also provide a dedicated technical helpline for all our customers that will take you straight through to one of experienced trainers who will be able to offer support. Read more about our after course support.
Do I need a Gold Card to become an electrician?
No, absolutely not. Gold Card is just one route you can take when becoming an electrician. Find out how to get your Gold Card.
Do I have to complete the courses within a set time period?
Absolutely not, we have designed the course this way so that you can break it up and complete it over whatever time period suits you.
Can I join a Competent Persons Scheme after completing this package?
To join a Competent Persons Scheme you will also require Level 3 Inspection and Testing Package. This will teach you how to test three phase circuits that tend to be found in commercial environments as well as how to carry out periodic inspection and testing.
How long will it take to complete this package?
This very much depends on how long it will take you to complete the online learning elements of the course alongside the in centre training, then put together your evidence portfolio. We would advise 12-18 months as a rough estimate to complete all elements of this package.
What is an evidence portfolio?
You will be required to put together a portfolio of evidence that showcases your knowledge, skills and experience. The evidence will be uploaded and collated in your e-portfolio, an online platform where you can organise your evidence and see your progress through the course. Your assessor will be able to give you feedback through the e-portfolio so you can manage your evidence easily.
How do I choose my in centre training dates?
Upon enrolment onto the course, we will send you a list of in centre course dates. You can choose to book in all your in centre training dates straight away, or start by picking your Domestic Electrician Course (stage 1) in centre training first, and then pick your Level 2 2365 and Level 3 2365 dates at a later point.
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.
