Hi guys, i need some advice from you.
As i wrote in my presentation post, i'm Italian, and I'm currently working in Itay as electrician, but i'm going to move to England within week (hopefully before Xmas) to make a new work and life experience.
I wish i could restart doing my job, but from the advices on job search engines, i noticed that to work as an employeed tradesman, and even as a mate, it's required to have different qulifications.
In addition, i began to study British regulations and wiring techniques, and i realized that there are several differences, expecially in wiring teqhniques.
I need your help becouse i'm not sure what's be the best way to move.
Here my background:
-BTEC Level 3 equivalent Diploma as Electronics Technician
-6 years of employment in the same company
-4 years of apprenticeship as electrician, but during while i actually covered a tradesman role.
-Done PPM and reactive maintenance on commercial sites.
-Managed for 2 years a contract for Alarms systems and cctv maintenance (PPM and reactive) for up to 160 commercial sites, plus some new installations.
-Done domestic, commercial and industrial new installations and re-wirings, both electrical and alarm.
-Often worked live, because PPM was carried out during shops open hours.
-Worked a little on photovoltaics during the last year.
In your opinion, it is best for me to restart from the basics, or i can translate some of my experience to restart from a most advanced level?
Considering my school background, should i focus only on the alarm side?
Wishing to start a carrier as employed electrician, Should i apply for the C&G 2357 to gain the Level 3, or is my diploma enough and i can just apply for further
qualifications such as 2382, 2395 etc...?
Should i try to employee as a trainee, or i can just apply for some advanced qualifications (i.e. C&G 2382, required in many job advices) and try to find
job as a mate?
I'll immediatly start working full time as gardener, for a friend in Bedfordshire, as soon as i'll arrive in England, so i wont be able to apply for full
time courses.
I'm sorry for being verbose, but i'm a confused, and i have too many doubts. I hope you guys can help me at least with some of them.
Thanks in advance.
Alessio.
