ECA and ESC announce major partnership

[NICEIC ENGINEER]

As announced yesterday the ECA and ESC have formed a new partnership for the good of the industry.

From April next year the NICEIC and ELECSA brands will be operated by a new venture called Certsure giving the industry a stronger voice to government and major stakeholders.

The move will bring many benefits to NICEIC and ELECSA registrants, the first of which is the creation of www.electricalsafetyregister.com a definitive searchable database of more than 30 000 registered electricians.

As part of our policy to be open and informative about the merger we have set up this thread for anyone to ask any questions or queries they might have.

A member of the NICEIC team will monitor the site at various points over the next week and provide answers to any questions you might have about the move.

We want you to get involved and look forward to hearing from you.

Very well put OT, and I do agree that the part p entry requirements for enry ino a part p scheme are practically nil. But I do not think that there should be no control of our industry, it should just be far more rigorous. Incidentally, there always was rubbish work, I've just been looking at a 1960's property that is a total disgrace. Hence the reason I think we do need safeguards, however the existing schemes are not working and I always make sure that the NICEIC assessor knows my views. But I personally think they are better that nothing, it the way that they determine competence that I disagree with.

There seems to be a deathly silence from the representative of the ECA and ESC regarding the
HoC Communities and Local Government Committee enquiry.

He was last seen wandering off into the distance with a bottle of Valium in one hand and bottle of Gin in the other ......

Anyone would think that the select committee had inside information!

I'm just bumping some of the older threads in the general electrical forum that had a lot of replies. They might not be current topics, if they're not, just ignore them and they'll soon drop off the list. If you DO wish to add a reply and get the conversation going again, feel free to do so. Your input might help somebody else in the future.

I'm just bumping some threads in the Electrical Forum, don't mind me while I do this, you don't have to respond to them. Although if they are still current topics, and you do wish to reply, you're welcome to. Keep the thread on-topic and make sure you stick to the forum rules though.
