I deliver the 2377. It changed in January this year, but it was only a change in its title number from 2377-?? and ?? to 22 and 32. So the qualifications remain the same. The online exam is now 50 question multiguess, and 1 hour 40 minutes long. the course content hasn't changed, there is a practical assessment, but there always was, so no change there. The practical consists of a Combined Inspection and test of a piece of class 1 and class 2 equipment, interpretation of the table to state when its next test will be due, completion of all relevant documents, and completing a pass and fail sticker. All this takes about 20 minutes. The practical assessment is retained by the training provider incase city and guilds decide to want a look when they carry out their external verification of the training provider.
There maybe a change on the horizon for the Code of Practice book which is used for the course, as this still has 16th edition terminology in it, but until then the course has not changed. When it does the only difference will be the relevant changes in terminology to bring into line with BS7671:2008 (2011) 1st amendment.
