Electrician moving to Scotland from R.Ireland

[Lauren DH]

I'm moving to Scotland from the Republic of Ireland, where i obtained my level 6 craft electrical qualification. I have been working in the industry fully qualified since 2012. I have been advised apply for the SJIB ECS card, to do this i need to enrol on the CEC program after completion of the following courses:
SELECT’S ECS Health & Safety Course,
Scottish Building Standards course,
IET Wiring Regulations to BS 7671.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any advise or has any experience on the matter? I was unaware i would have to do all these courses until i started enquiring as my previous boss who is from the UK thought all i had to do was apply for the ECS card. Any advice will be gratefully appreciated, thanks Lauren
