Good evening everyone,
I am new to the trade and this site and need some help please cos I am struggling big time to make any progress. Was made redundant in my own skill of printing and have been given a chance to retrain.
I recently started working with a company and was put on site as a mate. I have a cscs card but have now been told I need a ECS card (electricians labourer).
Apparently things have changed ,as I don't have any qualifications in electrical work I have to do a more advanced H & S assessment,IOSH or similar.
I live in Dartford Kent and need a centre near me.
I have spoke with JIB centre at Swanley but they wont take me because of lack of qualifications.
Been chasing my tail for a week now.
,Trying to sort it while being on site is near on impossible,so any help would be much appreciated
 
Evening...

if you look on the ECS website under card types, and then select electrical labourer you will find the card requirements below.
I believe (this has been asked before) that there are a couple of options to attain the card.

Either by holding a relevant qualification, or as you say completing another course in order to hold a H+S qual.

From there a quick google search of the course in question should lead you to the course provider.
