I'm only starting this thread because 2 last night got locked by Marvo before I could respond again.
So in response to:
http://www.electriciansforums.co.uk...orum/82885-minimum-qualifications-needed.html
More harm was done by the replies to the original thread because of the en-masse stupidly thought out answers by most of the responders, which to be frank simply makes us look daft.
The OP's question was quite simple (maybe not thought out correctly) and the obvious answer was the membership of Part P via a scheme - whether we like that or not its here to stay..... I interact with sparks of all grades and from what I see there is NO correlation between a Electrical Trainee cutting corners and the bad installs I see. In fact there are a number of "time served" sparks around me who do downright dodgy, non certificated, CIH jobs.
So next time there's a thread like last nights lets keep the reponses on track and constructive...... rants about the schemes and Electrical Trainee's don't help and actually, IMHO do more harm, and make us look foolish.
Tin hat on.
Edit: I now see far more dodgy kitchen installs since the scope of Part P got relaxed...
