A few weeks ago I took some advice from the forumists when I asked about college/institution/Center around kent offering 17th edition standalone exam.
I embarkle on online journey perusing lot of pages without joy, but I have finally found one who are charging £270 for 2hrs exam.
Is that the normal cost ?
 
Are you sure that is just for the exam, Gakure? if so it's a rip off.
 
Looking at some of the Training establishments they are talking of £450 plus for course and exam, but that is with a money back guarantee if you don't pass, just goes to show the stupidity of paying nearly 500 quid to learn how to navigate a book, if you are confident you can take and pass the exam then find somewhere else.

Hi - this is the one I used, studied at home and attended for the exam. It's just a bit cheaper at £200 :)

You are right Pete, it's exactly what I want to do, learn to navigate the book myself, then I do exams
 
Thanks Loki, unfortunately am miles away on kent

Where abouts in kent?
I lived in birchington, margate, westgate & broadstairs when i was a kid. Moved around a lot lol.

You could try calling colleges & seeing if they will book just the online exam?

Some training centres like tradeskills4u, ableskills might start offering free or reduced 18th edition course/exam if you do the 17th first.
 
Well, so are you recommending the 17th this year then the 18th next year?
No not at all wait for the 18th scam to start, at least that will give you a bit longer as 18th qualified until the IET runs short of cash and comes up with the 19th
