Discuss 18th edition training in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

By doing the exam, that should be enough to be classed as a competent person.

Why does there have to be a third party involvement. SCAM is the right word for it

I know there are a lot of people who may have passed the exam and became electricians in the loosest sense of the word.... but there are so called competent persons who are just as rough
 
They assess your workmanship as well as your knowledge.. but I agree why it should be done every year is a bit strange. Once you know how to do something, you're not likely to forget are you?
But there must be some policing otherwise the industry would be overrun with cowboys..

By doing the exam it proves nothing, except you are literate.
