Electrician course

the_matrix

Hi

Unfortunately I will be losing my job soon. I need some income. I was thinking of doing an electricians course. What course is good? How much time does it take? How much do they charge?

Is it a feasible idea. I am good with DIY stuff and could change a plug when I was 10 years old. I just didn't need a qualification until now.

Thanks in advance.

Bye

Unfortunately a short course will not make you an electrician.

This would take considerable training and work experience, even if you could change a plug when you were 10!

Hi there, back to college it would be and carry out an apprenticeship then you need to get the experience. Dont listen to these "Be an electrican in 5 weeks" courses as they are a lot of rubbish!!

Nothing stops you for going for a basic course such as CG 2382, the follow on to the new CG2394/5/6 although they do require good theory and pratical assessments but expreince is the key.
