JIB Electrotechnical Certification Scheme (ECS) JIB Gold Card

[MrSingh]

Hi all,

How do I go about getting a JIB Gold Card?
I have the following qualifications:
NVQ Levels 2 & 3
AM2
17th Edition

Do I need any other qualifications? ie health and safety etc etc

Have asked a few people and getting different opinions.

Pls help.

Thanks

Do you have a level 3 core qualification ie - 2330 L3, 2365 L3?

Go to the JIB website, download the application form, print it out, fill it in, send it to the jib.
Whilst you are on their website you could have a look at the criteria for each grade to see what you qualifications you need.

Hi,
I have 2330 L3

Hi,
I have 2330 L3

Read Davessparks reply.

You will be able to get a gold card with the quals you have.

For gold card you need, NVQ3, A Level 3 core qualification ie 2330 L3, and the AM2

Be aware the level 3 technical certificate is not the same as an NVQ3.
Apart from that you'll need to sit an ECS health & safety test, which isn't difficult at all.

Although I know someone that admitted to failing it 3 times!

If I'd failed it 3 times I wouldn't admit to it.

If you have completed the nvq3 you are exempt for 5 years and don't have to sit the ecs test.

 

[Johnuk]

as above, dont need to sit the h&s tester

 

[Farmelectrics]

phone the jib talk to them they will tell you what you need

 

[Tidy Max]

Lol phone the JIB. I have been trying to get in touch with them mofos for a while and i never have any luck!

 

[Leesparkykent]

Its easy, if you haven't got an nvq3 you aren't getting a gold card unless you completed your apprenticeship before the nvq3 come in to place which I think was 1999.

Many thanks to you all for your help.
