you are to encourage me dude not to discourage ...

Welcome to the forum.
Don't think tel was trying to discourage you, just telling it like it is.
You need to be aware that no matter what your training scheme tells you, after 20 days you won't be an Electrician, more an informed improver.
Training providers tell you what you want to hear to get your money in their pockets.
Having said that: If your willing to put the effort in & keep on learning after your 20 days ( Some have & become good sparks), then this can be a good industry.

I'll be an apprentice for a while to as to understand basics about domestic works because that is my focus , mainly domestic

Sorry mate, 20 day course & apprentice don't really mix in the same sentence. Either your doing a 20 day domestic installer course or your an apprentice.

He's telling you the truth though, those 5 week 'qualified' electrician courses should be named introductory or something along those lines as to become 'qualified' I had to do a 3 year apprenticeship, 2391 testing and AM2 qualifications.

I'm on the 20 days course but as soon as i finish i'll be applying as an apprentice so as to learn more of practicals for a lesser earnings

sorry to pi$$ on your fire, but if you think you can learn what it takes 4 - 6 years of study and training, in 20 days, then you have a rude awakening due.

What he said and more but I shouldn't
