Hello!
I am a complete newbie to the field of electrics, and I am wishing to retrain in my career as an electrician (currently a qualified teacher). I am 25, and I'm already a little concerned as to the lateness of 'getting into the game' so to speak, and potentially competing against other eventual candidates who will be nearly 10 years younger than me.
I am based in the North East (Middlesbrough) and have looked/emailed colleges in regards to a training programme that will train me as a qualified electrician - with Middlesbrough college being the main option.
They offer two main training courses it would seem, and it is this that I can hopefully get some advice on.
Middlesbrough College - Driving Ambition, Inspiring Success
This seems a shorter route into qualifying at level 2, and I am unsure as to whether to apply for this course, or...
Middlesbrough College - Driving Ambition, Inspiring Success
This course - the traditional and longer apprenticeship route.
Any advice at all from anyone would be gratefully appreciated, and thanks for the time given for anyone to read this.
Michael
