Which Governing Body to go for?

[jibjob]

Sorry jibjob, yes your reply was far more useful than mine!

Possibly, however I do also see your point :smiley2:

Im with ELECSA been with them for nearly two years now my choice was made by the fact there registration process was explained more clearly too me, There advisors where very helpful at the ELEX show and the name sounds more "electrical" than NAPIT !
Thing that really put me off NICEIC was being classed as Domestic Installer with there part P scheme and it would cost far too much for me to join as an approved contractor.

I did hear that what can be signed off without joining one of the bodies is changing and will increase in what a 17th reg electrician can sign off.

I just wish people would stop calling these Scam Providers ''Governing Bodies''!! They are anything but!!

Thank you for your previous email with regards to becoming a NAPIT member the payment for the first year would need to be taken in one fee which would be £480.00 + VAT = £576.00.
