Morgan....u will have no choice m8, I know guys who have fraught in Iraq and retrained and are on ÂŁ9 an hour with 2330 both level 2 and 3 , 2383 and 2392, it's the climate we are in , other option is self employment and you are 2-3 years ate minimum away from that

It's a tough time to retrain as a mature student, these stupid adverts don't help...BECOME AN ELECTRICIAN IN 6 WEEKS , absolute rubbish, more like 4/5 years, I feel sorry for the guys taken in by them

yes ...and this is why their better askin in here first......and you know my thoughts on these parasitic enterprises.....claiming to be `colleges` and `training centres`.....its all a load of cobblers.....most towns have further education colleges......large towns and citys have unis as well.....these institutions have always served the their communitys well.....so why all this 16 week stuff?....
well, i`ll tell you why......causs theres all this self-esteem around now.....this coupled with the notion (god knows where it came from)....with the notion that you can just change careers...or float into another disipline off the cuff.....
note how the O/P quickly disappeared once it was made clear to him just whats involved.....and thats just kickin the door open....

As mentioned the next step is to get a job as an electrician's mate, trainee, apprentice, labourer, whatever you want to call it, while you do the practical aspect which is the C&G2356 if you're quick (by which I mean sign up today) or the practical modules and renewables module of the new C&G2357.
As regards being "qualified to wire a plug" it doesn't work like that - the 2330 is the theory, the 2356 is the practical; you need both theory and practical to work as an electrician.
Companies are unlikely to want to employ someone as if they have the 2356 if they haven't got it. If you stipulate you "need" more money than everyone else it will make it even harder to find employment - there are loads of guys offering to work for free to get a foot in the door.
