Logic Certification

[hybrid67]

Hi all

I'm thinking about doing a Level 3 Award in Periodic inspection, Testing, Condition Reporting and Certification of Electrical Installations.

It’s a QCF qualification and certified by Logic's instead of C&G.

Never heard of Logic's- has anyone done this course and is it reputable?

Why not do the city and guilds 2395?

 

[hybrid67]

Because this course can be done over the weekends and the training centre is near me.

Have you heard of logic certifications?

 

[Leesparkykent]

I've heard of logic, I know a lad who done a logic PV course. Is The logic 2395 recognised by the jib? I thought only C&G or EAL are.

I think they are a known company and the JIB seem to think they are OK (at least for that course)

 

[Leesparkykent]

Happy days then if it's recognised.

 

[hybrid67]

Thanks for confirming that.

I know the qualification is only recognised in England, not Scotland.

The logics has got a higher pass rate as well.

Is the 2395 that hard? I've heard a lot of people failing it the first time.

The 2395 is only hard for those who have not got the knowledge to pass it and think they will walk through it.
It does require some effort and a good knowledge of GN3 (for periodic inspections) but it is fairly straightforward, so long as you are up to speed on the required regulations and guidance it is just a matter of being able to get this down on paper in the time.

Sorry i didnt see this Post, i think i was working on some thing.


Ive done courses with Logic Cert, EAL and C&G (as well as BTEC)

the Logic Cert if seen to be on Par with the C&G and EAL
my view (i did the 2394 with Logic Cert and the 2395 with EAL, the 2330 Level 2 and 3 with C&G)
Is the C&G 2394/5 are harder than the Logic Cert and EAL
I would rate people who have gotten the 2391 (old number) over all
and then 2394/5 with C&G
followed by the EAL/Logic Cert


Logic Cert and EAL both have OPEN BOOK than the C&G close book.
I didnt like the Logic cert, as im Dyslexic i tend to miss read things and guess what people want to know
(As can seen by these rambles, and miss direction)
Logic Cert marking was for any Question that is 1-3Marks you had to get 100% on them questions
and for 4-7Marks you could get 75% (drop a mark)

I think i lost a mark for LIMITATIONS and SCOPE, still cant remember which one likes to use which word
To me Scope is the Range of items you can test
Limitations is the Range of items you cant test
Half empty half full thing
so i dont see any difference in the two words.


Now due to the way Logic Cert have their markings i wouldnt do their exams personally
I liked EAL but still open book, so Logic Cert Vs EAL, then EAL wins
I would only do Logic Cert ONLY if EVERY OTHER Option was DEAD.

I didnt do the C&G 2394/5 because the pass rate of the 2391 and i figured that people who didnt pass the 2391 would of been better readers than myself, so i felt the odds werent good. And when your paying a few £600 to do each course (£1200 in total) its a lot to risk on some thing you could flop on. I paid more than i should of, as i split the course. Doing 2394 and then 2395, i figured that i could flop on one and do better, but to flop on both would killed me.
