Hi everyone I've got a few questions about the qualifications that I have
I finished my apprenticeship in 2008, I did a 4year day release course C&G2330 lvl2&3 and have loads of certificates from all the units and the final lvl2 & lvl3 certs along with lots of other cert liek EAL and OCR.
I also have the 17th edition certificate.
Also got the 2391 Inspection and Testing as well.
I've worked as an electrician for over 8years now (inc apprenticeship) in all areas of the industry so have a fair bit of experience.
I was looking into getting jib/ecs card as I am job hunting at the moment and a lot of them demand you have one for some reason, reading through the JIB/ECS application it seems to class the AM1 & AM2 as the main qualifications and treats my 2330lvl3 as a lower qualification.
Unless I am misread something unless I do the AM2 course I would get a card that says 'approved trainee' which, as you can imagine, I wouldn't be happy with as I have worked very hard to get to my current ability.
Can anyone shed any light on whether my qualifications are rubbish, if I need to do the AM2 or am I just misunderstanding things and will get the 'approved electrician' card with my current qualifications.
Cheers
Rob
