Stroma Certification Scheme Part P with Stroma

[SPARTYKUS]

Never been a problem not being NIC. Depends what line of work you're in.

If you need to notify then go for the cheapest, If you are trying to win big contracts with councils etc NICEIC might help but like I say never ever been asked "who are you registered with". Got asked a few times "are you registered"

Ive emailed them asking for some more info. Will post it up when they reply

First read this thread a week ago. Being interested in going self employed I sent them an email asking a few questions about what they would want to see, what would be the lead time for them sending an assessor etc, to date no response not even an acknowledgement.
Has anyone heard anything from them, if so I'd be grateful for some info

If the 2 posters above have not heard anything by the end of play today, it says all we need to know about Stroma.

It's now 18:00 and no response from Stroma, says it all really

WTF ANOTHER competant persons scheme FFS ELECTRICSAFE should be the ONE and more importantly ONLY scheme run Not more and more each additional scheme provides not only more hassel for consumers but LESS regulation as they MAY not have as stringent checks and requirements as NICEIC ELESCA NAPIT and may "water things down"

Maybe Dan should set up a Part P "company" - managed and run by us trusty sparkies, for the benefit of the sparky and its primary focus is educating the Public!!!!

Maybe we should form a pressure group to get building trades recognised as professions. In the same way as no one can call themselves solicitors, doctors, accountants etc no one should be able to set up in building trades without a certain minimun level of qualifications. One governing body for each trade.
With a bit of thought by the trades themselves I'm sure it's workable

Oh nice, a company that revolves and operates around 1 guy!

What a novel idea ..... of course there wouldn't be a mountain of money to make out of us that way though!

No Sparty BUT the consumers would have ONE list to check ONE website to visit ONE line of complaint On contractors side I see ONE as the way to go as with all these differnt schemes popping up you get consumers saying "iv never heard of NAPIT" ect NICEIC should do what they were started for and REGULATE the electrical work being done instead of just making money and letting every man and his donkey with a 4 week course go and practice their DIY skills on other peoples premisis
The government had CORGI now GASSAFE n people recognise it people and it has clout NICEIC Ect ect ect ect have no clout except for using their name without their permision ( paying them monies) its just developing into one giant cockup
