service leaver needing help please

[mattiedragan]

hi all,

new to this site and my first forum post. iv just served 12 years in the air force and im currently on the process of getting medically discarged and im looking for some help. iv been doing as much research as i can and im wondering what the best route to get fully qualified as an electricain is. im 29 and iv got no qualifications at present but fortunatly i can get some funding from the forces for training. gonna bang out a few questions and would really approcoate any help you guys can offer.
what are the basic quals you need to start up?

iv seen some training providers who offer c&g 2365 lvl 2+3 full diploma, but i dont see 17th edition regs on there would this
be an additional course id have to complete or is it covered under those courses?

who do you guys recommend doing training with/ work placement?

look forward to your guys repsonses
