the way i understand it, is the 2391 is not a stand alone course but an addition that that those an installers course can do so they do not have to do 2394/5.

The 2391 is a further course that can be taken after completion of qualification as an additional level of progress, the course often offered on the fast track courses is 2392 which is an introductory course to the 2391.
For the last few years the 2391 has been withdrawn and replaced with the 2394/2395 qualifications but it now seems the 2391 is being resurrected in the form of three different course options which effectively match the old 2391, the 2394 and the 2395.

This course is simply covering the requirements of the building regulations in relation to electrical installation as a sop to the "Part P Qualification" brigade, not really of any particular value except to demonstrate on paper that you have read the approved documents.

There seems to have been a lot of dumbing down the qualifications recently, and a lot more cowboys on the loose. Luckily there seems to be less general public trying to do their own work from what I've seen which can only be good.

I do think there needs to some tightening up of the law regarding electrical work, like the gas regs have. Testing is 90% experience, so coming out of college and going straight into EICR's should be prohibited somehow. I've no idea how this would be enforced though.
