ELECTRICIAN COURSES WITH OPTIONS SKILLS

Step 1: Centre Led Training

You will begin by attending one of our training centres in either Birmingham, London or Manchester. Delivered in small groups, you will learn essential theory and practical skills. At this stage, we also deliver essential 18th Edition Wiring Regulations and the Domestic Electrical Installers Award (Part P).

Step 2: On-Site Work Experience

You will continue your personal development with real work experience. Alongside a qualified electrician, you will work as a paid trainee on-site. This work experience will be invaluable, helping to build your confidence and knowledge. This stage of training varies in duration, with it taking anything from 1- 3 years.

Step 3: AM2/Gold Card

Following completion of your NVQ, you will be referred to take your AM2 (Achievement Measurement Test). All trainees must complete this test before being able to gain Installation Electrician Status. Once all three steps of your training are complete, you can apply to JIB/ECS for your 'Gold Card'. With this card, you are awarded the status of Installation Electrician.
