I know what you mean mate as i wondered the same thing when i passed. You don't actually get a certificated to say your a qualified spark as far as i know (just need NVQ2 +3 and AM2) and also, i always wondered about enrollment no. and what that meant as i went straight into apprenticeship and still at company, so never needed it ?????

Also if you studied the brown regs book thats how you know you done the 16th and you sound to new to have done the 15th

16TH came in different colours for different amendments, yellow (1992) then blue (2001) followed by brown (2004).
