read it again. you get the basic for your £2500+. all the c&g qualifications listed are bolt-ons at additional cost. bloody conmen.

 

[nickblake]

That lot in 4 weeks im sorry simon i dont mean to be negative , but it takes years to become a good electrician what you need to do is speak to your local college get your self on a basic installation course normally about 15 weeks and work your way up .speak to a few local electrical contractors and see if they require an apprentice and slowly build up your knowlage ive been at it for over 25 years and im still learning ,

what do you mean so it want help me what so ever really !!!!

 

[oldtimer]

So I have wasted 6 years training and getting qualifications when I could have done it in 4 weeks ? well if it looks to good to be true it probably is my advice would be if you still want to do this then make sure you have the £2500 PLEASE do not borrow it why ?well if it does not work out at least you tried and lost £2500 or you will now owe £3500 and climbing with no prospect of paying it off and if you want to owe £4500 then put it on your credit card.

Before you sign up to any of this go to a local library and get one of those DIY book thingies and get yourself some knowledge yes I know its easier to come on this forum but that is just plain lazy plus there are a lot of guys here who are concerned that people are jumping in too early

 

[telectrix]

all it will do is give you some basic knowledge, about the same as an average DIYer. don't FFS waste your money. do as nickblake suggested. speak to localo college.
