2394/2395 college courses.

[golfpaul]

Does anyone know of a college offering these courses in the north west, I've emailed a few just waiting for replays.

I've seen independent training providers charging around 2k for these, I would have thought colleges are cheaper..?

Cheers.

[northstar]

where are you based in the northwest ?

 

[golfpaul]

Manchester

 

[northstar]

have you tried Tameside college ?

 

[golfpaul]

I've tried a few, Wigan are looking the cheapest at about 375 per course. I presume it's worth doing the 2394 first?

Is the work notifiable?

you dont need 2391,2392,2394 or 2395 to sign off you own work.

it is recommended that you have testing and inspection to test other peoples work but im not sure if thats a legal requirement

I imagine that the legal requirement is couched in terms of 'competence'. Each one of us needs to ask ourselves: 'How can I prove my competence?'.

[COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961)]These qualifications are a 'benchmark' which if standards are consistently maintained by the training and examination agencies enable you to 'prove' to a third party the potential level of your competence. If you have some alternative logged experience or qualification which demonstrates that you are competent then whenever someone calls into question your competence they may or may not have the required knowledge to understand and interpret the evidence that you have to offer. If your employer is a professional in your field then they will be well placed to do this; if not, however, the existence of the 'common currency' of a qualification framework such as City & Guilds enables you to trade your skills for remuneration in the marketplace of the world of electrical installation and test.[/COLOR]

the 2394 and 2395 is the 2391 split into two so they can charge you twice

Is it worth doing the 2394 first, or doesn't it matter?

They do charge twice, but not at a 1000 quid a pop if you have any sense about you!! lol!!

The place local to me that runs this course charges £700 for each or a grand if you do them combined,
you have to do both for it to be equivalent to the old 2391. IMO If I was you I would do them combined.

 

[golfpaul]

Yeah I've managed to find a local college that works out at about 900 for the two
