C&G 236 equivalent to?

[Penance]

Just had my 236 reissue certs arrive in the post, part 1 and 2.
What is the modern equivalent?
Have read that 236 part 2 is equivalent to a level 3 NVQ, is that correct?

2360 part 1 was replaced by 2330 L2.

2360 part 2 was replaced by 2330 L3.


General concensus is the 2330 was brought about as the 2360 was too hard.


Inbetween the two came the 2351 (less said the better)


The 2360-101 was the written assignment section of the part 1 qualification, there was one for the part 2 aswell.

The 2356 was and still is NVQ L3.


The 2400 is still around, only it has a new name....2391-20.

lenny thank you !
you seem to know your stuff so if i have a record of acheivements off city and guilds stating a pass for assignments would you think that would indicate 2360-101 was completed?

Hi how did you get on with the JIB i'm in the same boat only 23 years experience and the last 13 of those self employed so no employer to vouch for me. Cheers Del.

The 2360/1 and the 2360/2 were the only qualifications avaliable at that time (in the 1980's).

Ive wondered about this question too.

Luckly I think im going to be in employment soon. Working for the government. Im just awaiting the 'vetting procedure' to be completed.

I contacted the JIB to try to get an 'approved' electrician card. To get this you need to prove training. I didnt do a reconised apprentiship, but i have 13 years experience. 3 years of that was spent in industrial and marine work.

Im just hoping that the 'vetting' goes well. Because if I get this job I won't ever need to contact the JIB again.
