Hi all, first post and have just joined the site,

I did my three years at college and did the 2330, parts 1,2 and 3, finished up about three and a half years ago, never got round to booking and doing my 17th, I've been doing containment and cabling works since then and for about 5 years before,

I now have had a change of job and have a bit of spare time in the days,

I'm booking my 17th asap, what else do i need to do to get a jib card? any help would be extremely greatful!

hi mate you need a bit more than that you will need nvq level 3 and cscs course passed and you need have a letter from empolyer vailidating you worked as a electrician etc..
the nvq level 3 is a on going assement with hands on practicial evidence , but why the rush to get a jib card, not everyone asks for them?

thanks mate, these courses are all still available at the mo? it seems a bit weird on some of the sites as none really seem to say exactly whats what.

I have my cscs, i am just starting work with a company and they want jib sparks mainly, bit annoying lol

hi yes the courses are some of our blokes are going on one run in harlow, but be warned they have been told its a min 6 mths to complete so not a over night thing , im sure if you explain to oyur company you have cscs and other qoualifactions ie 17th and are going to self fund to get nvq 3 im sure they cant knock you for that? good luck
