Electrician course - 17th Edition or something else?

[ttl]

Hi there,

My employer would like to send me on electrician course (1-2 years or less)
Could you please advise me which one is the best for beginner?
He said that 17 edition is suitable for me but maybe there is something better,longer and more expensive?

I am sorry for my bad english.

I would like to become an electrician in my company (adverts).

and do you currently have any experience?

I have very little experience (replacing tubes and starters) but I would like to learn more.

then imo an aprentiship is the best way forward, followed by 17th then 2391.

or see if you can still get on a C&G 2330 course at local college (or equivalent- some have already phased it out for something else, can't remember the number). If you can find one they will usually offer full-time which is 3 days per week for one year for the level 2 part, or 1 evening per week for 2 years. Level 3 is often just 2 days per week or one evening if you go on to it. Good luck.

2330 replaced with 2357 (incorporating NVQ 3). It's a level 3 qualification and you must be working in the industry to be eligible. Not sure how this is going to work. I don't think c&g do either!
