Where to go now??

[BigWeeLaddie]

Just looking for some information on what steps to do next?

I have passed my C&G 2330 Level 2 and 3 and got distinctions in both.
I have just passed my C&G 2382-200 17th Editions BS7671.

I am planning to do my 2391-10 Inspection and Testing.

I dont have my NVQ nor Part P. What I would like to know is would it be worth doing my Part P?

I am not as yet working as an apprentice as I am a mature student!! But i want to Test and Inspect in commercial premises, but would like to to domestic as well! What do I need to go self employed??

Can anyone give me some helpful info as to what to do next to progress my career!

Many thanks in anticipation

Derek

Part P is a building reg not a qualification, if you want to go self-employed you need to get part p registered with niceic, napit or elecsa if your doing domestic work, with the quals you have theres nothing stopping you from registering now. You dont need the nvq unless you want a JIB card or an employer desires it. if you want to do testing in commercial then I think the 2391 is the road to go down but the pass rate is low so if you dont have much experience then maybe the 2392 first as its considered a stepping stone to the 2391

Thanks Gus. I will apply to the NICEIC to get Part P Registered. By the way what do I need to do to be a COMPETENT person?

COMPETANCE! (sorry, couldn't help it), to be competent you need relevant training(which you have) or experience of the task in hand.

i think you'll find that you are already one, as you've passed your 17th Ed
