Most scanner software will produce PDF files from their images these days mate (not as bad as it used to be). Easy to view anytime then, just double click on the file in Windows explorer (or your favourite linux file navigator tool).

thanks TQ...i will have to just suss it out for myself....persevearance being a virtue and all that lot...lol......

Probably the default resolution setting on scan versus copy, it's prob set to a much higher resolution.

I was with you all the way up to probably. Im afraid im in the same camp as glenn with computers.

Sorry if this has already been answered elsewhere.. I have just passed my part p, 17th, PAT and am doing I & T next week (2392). Due to my circumstances and in the process of getting out of the forces, i am not looking at doing my assessment until later next year. Will i have "grandfather rights" on the courses i have done prior to the change or will i have to do another course to become registered with either of the approved providers. Thanks in advance for your responses.

im pretty sure membership mostly depends on the assessment. A friend of mine has been with Napit for about 3 years now. he failed the 2391 last year and occasionally they say he`ll have to do it again at some point, but as long as hes paying them, they seem pretty happy to keep him as a member.

well from what i can gather all the part p providers say is you have to SIT the 2391 once a year.....no one said anything about passing it and this is how it perpetuates....seems a waste of money to me though...to sit an exam without passing just so you can stay part p............

Can you imagine the outrage if that happened with other proffesions. You could be a doctor as long as youve taken the exams. passing them is just a bonus.

That is the first i have heard of that. So thats another £400 a year. Wondering if this is all worth it. £400 for annual fee, £300+ for assessment and then this. I am seriously thinking about changing my plans to be honest!!!

 

[grimysparks80]

I think you only have to sit it once a year if you fail it.

well as i said the proposals for the short NVQ for part p arnt finalised yet and i reckon it wont be until well into the new year before the government gets it together........arnt going to take the risk though....I am doing the NVQ3 at the mo at college but i dont fancy waiting around for 2 years before i can notify stuff..........

Elecsa ￡444 full scope if you want to do pirs ￡700 plus this includes full scope and pir assesment .then part p everry year and pir assesment every 3 plus indeminity insurance and you have to have 2391 before. Change in jan new requirment is nvq level 3 no other qualification will do.

 

[grimysparks80]

How does that affect the installers already with a scheme who dont have level 3 NVQ? I cant believe theyll just be told to stop Trading.

If your with a scheme before 31st dec 2011 it doesnt matter. Just 17th edition qual for all but naapit who already require this plus a level 3 such as c&g 2360.part 1&2 and 2391
