NICEIC Domestic Installer

[chelseaboy]

Just got off the phone with a friend who has just told me that the NICEIC are now not insisting on 12 months experience to join there Domestic Installers scheme. Has anyone else heard this?

As mentioned by some else, for DI you don't need 12 months experience or trading but you do/did for Approved Contractor.

at the risk of hijacking this thread, what is the difference between DI and approved contractor with NICEIC? My Elecsa card says "Part P Approved Contractor". Is this DI in NICEIC terms? (just curious....)

you've always had to provide transport thats nothing new!

first time i was asked , the leaflet they send with the assessment has always said that but it was the first time i was actually asked to ferry him about

Part p approved contractor/ Niceic DI
These are for domestic electricians/chippies/plumbers/general handymen and 5 week wonders

Niceic A/C - NAPIT - ECA is for proper electricians who undertake the whole scope of bs7671 (you won't get away with using one of your mates job for these assessments)
