3 week wonder training newbie

Paul- if your son/daughter doesn’t mind training for 2-3years they can get full gold card requirements for JIB without doing short courses.

A lot of colleges offer 2365 level 2 and 3 as evening courses (two evenings a week)- one year for level 2 (less than £2000 in most places and paid in instalments over the year), another year for level 3 (paid for by government no matter how old you are or what previous qualifications you have, but only if done at a college and not a training centre).

They can then do the NVQ Level 3 in the third year- or alongside the level 3 which is what I am doing now. NVQ is about £1000 and you need to do the AM2 which is about £400-500.

Plus you can be working in the industry throughout as a mate/improver somewhere to gain experience and earn while you learn!

Yes I agree, he's already done the 2 years and gained his 2365, its the next step he's struggling with... Actually finding someone to take him on as a mate/improver.. He lives up near Liverpool which is miles from where I live.

He’s almost there then! If he’s already got the level 3 and can financially take the risk then there’s lots of agency work up here! I’m in Liverpool- I got an improver position for a housing trust through an agency about 8-9months ago and I’ve just been taken on with a 12month contract.

I want to do some commercial/industrial but this will see me through to qualifying at least!

Once he gets work somewhere inphase in Liverpool do the nvq for £850 plus vat- or there’s xstraining online where I’m doing mine

There is no Part P in Scotland, we didn't bother with the domestic installer course.

There is no part p here either thankfully
