Apprenticeships
The electrical industry is a major part of the UK construction industry, employing people who work with a wide range of materials and technology. To be a fully qualified electrician it is necessary to have an NVQ Level 3 in Electrotechnical Systems. The apprenticeship will incorporate this relevant NVQ into the training, whilst offering the chance to earn while you learn.

EAL Level 3 Electrotechnical (Electrical Installation).
City & Guilds certificates in Inspection, Testing and Certification of Installations, Wiring Regulations and In-service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment. It is also useful to complete a short training scheme known as Part P which allows electricians to certify all their own electrical work
