Description

You can apply directly on Level 3. You must attend to the classes once of week (Sunday or Saturday). The duration of the course is 8 months. This is a funded course by Student Finance. This qualification allows the learner to acquire advanced underpinning knowledge and related skills of electrical installation. It does not require occupational evidence from the workplace, so is suitable for learners who currently do not work within the electrical industry (but may wish to do so). The qualification has been adapted from the QCF Diploma within the apprenticeship framework, therefore successful completion of the qualification facilitates progression to the industry recognised qualification. It provides the learner an opportunity to practice and be assessed in a secure environment on the installation and testing of electrical equipment together with the relevant theory of electrical installation to the current edition of the wiring regulations. The learner has the opportunity to utilise BS 7671 within some of the units and also acquire the relevant understanding of electrical science and principles. The qualification can be delivered completely at the Centre, with a mix of workshop and theory sessions. The assessment involves on-screen examinations, practical assessments and theory assignments.
