probably been discussed but I can't find this info I'm wanting

Anyway once the 18th is active and we all need to spend ÂŁÂŁÂŁÂŁ on our new bibles will there be a short update exam or a full 18th edition exam

Thanks
 
recently spoke the assessment engineer about the 17 to the 18th I had asked about this.
he said if you want to do the 18th exam that's ok but you do can do it another way
by reading the up dates on new 18th new edition that showing how to applying them that's ok.
 
Won't be confirmed till the likes of EAL and City and Guilds look into it.

With the likely introduction of Part 8 having significant content, a new course is a guarantee.

Having reviewed the draft in detail I am confident that I would develop training for a one day course to cover the differences between the 18th edition and Am3 of the 17th.

If C&G insisted it be a new complete course, I would simply request evidence of a 17th edition and offer anything missing from the amendments to the 17th included in the 18th.

You Jest Danny "a short update" no mate full on course to make the IET and the scams more money.
 
Yes I that's probable the case pete and the regs book,guidance notes and on site guide will probable follow this with them costing more
Think back they didn't do it 16th -17th, there will be no difference 17th-18th, the IET could of course issue updates and changes, but there isn't enough cash in doing that, still I suppose it keeps people employed, what you say is true though. Glad I'm out of it now still probably buy the new 7671 and OSG, sid the guidance notes though my Pension won't stand that lot as well.
 
^^ thing is, it isn't just the cost of the exams, the mandatory OSG and Big book, its all the guidance notes, tester updates, certificate software updates and time off.

Talk about being shafted......
 
What's the betting that as soon as the 18th is out there is talk of Amd 1.
According to Alan wells I think his name is head technical guy from niceic , regulations that didn't make it in time before the release of the DPC have been shelved and will be considered for amendment 1.
If it's true What a joke!
 
I'm sure I have seen a comment already about what is likely in the 18th Ed AMD 1 ....... which pretty much proves that its all about creating jobs ...........
Knees up in a brewery comes to mind, money for old rope etc.
