UK Advice needed on a course to get a foothold on a new career

[Guynosaur]

Hi, I'm 25 years old and I'm looking for a change to this field, with a hope of becoming an electrician.
I currently working as a yardman in a building merchants, wouldn't say I'm adept but I'm fairly comfortable with non-technical DIY stuff.
I've seen Tradeskills4u mentioned frequently in this forum, to get a rough grasp on the kind of skill set I will need to become an electrician is this course worth the time/money?
Thanks ?

C&G 4141-01 Domestic Installation Workshop

Domestic Installation Workshop SS1A

By far our most popular electrical course, simply because of its practical content uniquely combining installation, inspection and testing instruction.

That course is only available at that training provider and as such probably won't be recognised by the wider industry.
It seems to be a course that ends in zero qualification but will be used as a stepping stone to enrol you onto more courses of varying merit.

Agree. If your going down this route, keep the £500 and save up for something more substantial.
