Hi i'm new to the forum and have been doing a bit of reading, and have some questions to ask.
I'm currently working as a maintenance electrician for a car firm, due to the unforeseeable future i'm looking to become qualified to work for myself as a domestic installer or at least work for a firm as an electrician.
I'm wondering what qualifications are recommended,
I have an hnc in engineering which included electrical wiring and measurement,
also city and guilds 2380/01 level 3 pass for the multiple choice test, (is there a seperate practical test)
and a little over a year ago i passed c&g 2391
I'm wondering if i would need to take a practical assessment to be able to do the type of work i'm looking for,
I do a lot of installation and repair work at the moment but the company i work for is very reluctant to give training to the latest standards unless it is mandatory. i taught myself the 2391 theory and sat the test, i had passed the practical side a while back.
i'm currently trying to piece together my qualifications in readiness to start work,
i've looked in to the approved contractor schemes and looked at the nessecary requirements to become jib certified, some of it can be really daunting, any advice would be much appreciated, thanks
