Frequently Asked Questions

GET IN TOUCH
Can I split the weeks up?

You can choose to complete these classes consecutively, or over a longer period of time.

Yes, you can. You will need to pay a deposit and we can arrange interest-free instalments over the length of your course..

Our Step 3 course advances your knowledge learned in Step 2. After Step 3 you can choose to work with an electrician as an electrician’s mate, or you can continue your electrical training. To become an electrician you will need to complete all 4 steps, including your AM2 assessment. At this point, you will be recognised as a qualified electrician and eligible to apply for an ECS Gold Card.

Many electricians join competent person schemes (CPS) as it is usually a more convenient and cost-effective way to notify Building Control of completed work. You can undertake notifiable and non-notifiable work without being registered with a CPS and whilst there are obvious business benefits to joining such schemes, they are not mandatory.

You will not be able to join a CPS until you have completed your training including NVQ and AM2.

The best way to get experience is to work with a local electrician or business. If you find suitable employment during any stage of your training don’t forget you can switch to our funded apprenticeship route.

When you have completed Step 2 you may choose to:

  • Work with an electrician as an electrician’s mate. The skills you have gained will make you useful and able to carry out many tasks under supervision.
  • Gain employment and complete your NVQ. Don’t forget, if you find suitable employment you may be able to complete your Step 4 as a funded apprenticeship.

On completion of Step 3 you may also wish to consider one of our bolt-on courses such as:
