Electrical Training 4u

[stan794]

Hi all,
has anybody done any training with Electrical Training4U. I am thinking of using them for a couple of courses and was hoping someone on here might have some feedback about them.
Thank you in advance.

Never heard of them before.

Never used any where else other than colleges

Hi amp david, as i'm from sussex i know nigel at ET4U he does run some good courses the main advantage being the class sizes are small he has resident sparky doing all the practical stuff and the guys teaching do the rounds at the colleges so i think he has a good set up, also only place doing an experience week.

Sounds like the perfect place to become a Electrical Trainee.

That sums that up. A week's experience.

Not wanting to repeat myself, but been there, done that and its woefully inadequate. Yeah Nigel and Steve are nice guys but that aint going to help you change a CU, etc, etc a mentor when you have done it is a must.

Corrected that for you.

 

[stan794]

And your point

 

[Plonker 3]

Qualifications gained on a short course, no experience but people who do these courses come on here expecting to be treated like they are "TIME SERVED" then get shirty because we ask them about exactly what they know.

 

[stan794]

Please point out in my post where i said that i expected to be treated as time served and also at what point i became shirty.

 

[Plonker 3]

I never said you did, I was pointing to the fact these courses do that to people.

 

[stan794]

Cool, no worries, im just a humble trainee lol lucky enough to be taken under sparks wing. I do agree these course have a good sales speil and tell you what you want to hear.

 

[Plonker 3]

Well I hope you take note of what he does and is teaching you well. Good luck for the future.

Hi Guys firstly i agree with Tony earlier in this thread why has this old post been revisited. It would appear secondly that the person who revisited the post has put a link in the forum to some random site so perhaps someone from the forum should take a look at that. Thirdly whilst being in danger of coming out of the closet so to speak and perhaps in danger of being attacked as so many Electrical Trainee have been on this forum i trained at ET4U some time ago. I did the 4 week course which included the experience week that was mentioned in the earlier post. I was fully aware before doing this course that i would need to gain experience after i left and was not stupid enough to think that i would be an Electrician. So thats what i did and a year later i feel more confident and have to say am really happy with the training i received but more so with the support i have received whilst working in the field. If i have had an issue they have always been there for me to help and i have not had to rely on any help from other Electricians and have purposefully waited to join the forum now so perhaps i can give some help to others now i have gained some more experience.

they are not the only companies running training weeks, others do.
