I'm studying electrical and eletronic HNC now then HND later but I want to become an electrician.

I checked a lot of jobs are required City and Guide qualifications.Thus I'm planning to take the city and guide after the HNC and become a full qualified electrician.

Can someone give an insight about stages I have to pass up to become a full electrician and how long it will take?

With HNC qualification still I have to start at the beginning or there are some exemptions?

And any cheaper way to do it? I saw fees to some of training companies are very high and I can't afford it.And due to my age I can't be an apprentice.

SORRY, if I have post this one on the wrong sub forum as it my time here!

I did my ONC first and then NVQ3 as well as my HNC upon completion of my apprenticeship. I sat my 2391 after my apprenticeship. 10 years on it hasn't made any difference to my career outlook, I'm a member of the IET and going through IEng status at the mo. I don't work on tools anymore so not interested in JIB to be honest

It's a bit if waste of time doing HNC and training to become an electrician. Your better off making full use of the HNC qualification in instead.

Agree with this fully, if you can gain your HNC qualification then you should be looking further than just 'electrician'.
Try working toward a career as an electrical engineer/designer/consultant etc, etc

That's presuming you want to?

I have to agree, i'm doing the HNC at the moment. My plan is to complete this and then go onto the PDA in Renewables which is similar to a HNC but a little bit more specialised. That's the area that interest me the most, my short stint of house bashing & commercial rewires was more than enough to put me off that game!
