Your not getting my point!!! If a spark has been working in this industry for 20 years and completed his apprenticeship at his time.... HE WILL BE GRADED AS AN ELECTRICIAN!!! Same for the 60's, 70's and so on. NVQ or not. You complete the recognised electrical apprenticeship at the time and you'll always be a graded spark!!
Perfetic.....every single time I've had a electrical question telectrix has always had a answer for it and he's rated a trainee......
Who are the jib to rate you anyway, not higher than the guilds......
Anyone with abit of money behind them could start a scheme, advertise it to sites etc to say blah blah blah
not so. i obtained HND, Electrical Engineering in 1979. had 30 years exp.JIB classed me as trainee. bloody muppets.
No disrectful Tel, but was a HND in 1979 the recognized qualification needed to be a qualified electrician via an apprenticeship? such as the 2360, 2330 etc. This is what I mean!
And I know you know your stuff..... A lot more than me
Only issue i have with the JIB is that from reading many posts it seem's that someone with over 20 years of electrical experience has to do NVQ 3 to be called a sparks now, 20+ yrs ago NVQ just didn't exist to my knowledge.
well the thing is i don`t know exactly how it works....there seems to be quite a few of these `JIB said this...said that` stories in here....as far as i can remember if he got a job for a jib co and had all his certs they could then if they felt so apply for him by them to be graded as a jib electrcian,not certain if you could be graded as app elec before elec if he didnt do a jib apprenticeship,tho dont quote me on that..
My mate Rob is on the dole, can't find his certs(he's moved around a lot following his divorce)and can't afford to replace them, they told him if he can provide 10 years of work references they will consider what grade they will give him. I reckon he'll get something like trainee or labourer, what do you think guys?
That's him screwed then because he's a bloody good spark. I know he's time served because we were at college together.Only if he can prove competence as a labourer:lol:
Finish your dinner lads and you'll get the card. Simples!!!
Strange how the only people who slag the JIB off are either Electrical Trainee, mates, improver or 'technicians' from other occupations.
Like I said the JIB are the only ones keeping our industry serious and battling against what must be hundreds and hundreds of training centres.
please clarify other occupations...??
