Wondered what your thoughts were, changing light fittings, plugging into existing 5A sockets. Not altered any fixed wiring. How much testing would you do? What certification? If you installed a TV and plugged in to a 13A socket would you certify?

Hi all
I'm thinking about doing a Level 3 Award in Periodic inspection, Testing, Condition Reporting and Certification of Electrical Installations.
It’s a QCF qualification and certified by Logic's instead of C&G.
Never heard of Logic's- has anyone done this course and is it reputable?
