The Gold Card Training Programme is the most comprehensive electrician course available. We offer weekday, weekend and evening delivery options. JIB ECS (Gold) Card is quickly becoming a necessity when seeking work on commercial sites, or sub-contracting to larger contractors.


What is the JIB ECS Gold Card?
The Electrotechnical Certification Scheme (ECS) is the occupational certification scheme for electrotechnical workers within the UK. The Gold Card certifies that the cardholder has proved their specific experience and competence through a set, ‘rigorous and robust’ assessment process.
The Joint Industry Board (JIB) are the owners and issuing authority for the ECS in England, Wales & Northern Ireland, whilst north of the border is served by the ‘Scottish JIB’.


Who is this package suitable for?
This is the most comprehensive of all our electrical training packages available here at Optima Electrical Training. This programme will provide you with all the training and assessments required to achieve JIB Gold Card status in a Fast Track format saving you time and money. From beginner to fully qualified, this programme has everything that you will need. 
You will start your journey by learning the fundamental requirements when undertaking an electrical installation as well as information relating to the structure and organisation of the electrical industry. This is all covered within the C&G 2365 level 2. 
You will then move on to more advanced C&G 2365 level 3 where you will cover scientific principles, fault diagnosis and rectification as well as receive an abundance of knowledge on inspection and testing and installation design. 
Upon completion of the Level 2 and 3 Diplomas you will continue your studies by participating in the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations – C&G 2382-18 which then seamlessly leads on the very popular and much desired C&G 2391-52 Inspection & Testing course.
At this stage you should be working within the industry. We will then arrange site assessments in order for you to achieve C&G 2357 NVQ 3.
Do we have an online version?
Yes, along with our in-centre programmes, online courses are avaiable allowing for you to study at your own pace and at a time that suits you.

Exams & Assessments

Pass Rate
The pass rate for this course package is over 95%. Our high pass rate is partly down to the structure and delivery of the content, however, the fact that we deliver classes in class sizes smaller than most other training centres (average 8 - 12 students) enables us to provide a more intimate, personal learning experience. 
Training in smaller groups also allows this course to be tailored/adapted to focus on any weaker points an individual learner or group may have.

The fees for this programme are dependant on location and method of payment. We now have interest free payment plans with zero deposit required.

What previous participant said about the course:
"For me, coaching with Rachel has been literally life-changing. When I first contacted Rachel I only expected to find out if dating was viable for someone as socially anxious as me and maybe a little help with my dating profile. What ended up happening transformed not just my beliefs about romantic relationships but about myself, emotions and all my other relationships. And throughout I have found her to be unceasingly gentle, patient and kind.
If a past version of myself read the above it would probably put him off. I would tell him: Rachel will not judge those parts of you that you might be a bit embarrassed about, and not only is she a lovely, friendly person, she is also as evidence-based as a dating coach can get. The worst thing that could happen is you lose a bit of time and money. But the best thing could be that she helps you find someone to spend the rest of your life with. So, if you’re thinking about contacting Rachel, stop procrastinating and go for it!” (Nick, 29)
"I really enjoyed the course. There were plenty of questions and purposeful advice that helped me to reflect on how I approached dates." (Simon, 35)
"I've really enjoyed attending this workshop. Every session has been thought provoking and I have really enjoyed the discussions and the many different perspectives and experiences discussed. The environment felt warm and inviting which allowed me to be vulnerable. Rachel's warm personality was a great help especially in the beginning stages of getting to know everyone. Rachel was very insightful. If you don't know where to begin in the dating world, this workshop is for you." (Lisa, 37) 
"I've learned a lot from Rachel's workshop and it's been great to have a safe and supportive space to talk about some of my challenges in dating. Rachel's a very empathetic and open dating coach. I'd recommend this workshop for anyone looking for a top level introduction to improving their dating habits and prospects." (Isioma, 41)
"Having already had a few 1:1 dating coaching sessions with Rachel, I was keen to take part in the group course in order to have more interaction with others who have also been struggling on this journey and learning from their experiences. I realised that the group sessions would also have a slightly different approach to the 1:1s and thought this could be beneficial to me. I really enjoyed the group course! Rachel's extensive knowledge, from her coaching and research, is evident in the sessions. They were carefully planned and developed but also she managed to personalise them and respond to slightly more individual needs or questions within the group once the sessions were under way. Rachel provided good materials to download as part of the course, in addition to the use of her 'Dating Workbook' as part of the tools for the sessions. I have found these very helpful and the Dating Workbook is great for both guided and independent use. The topics covered in both the group sessions and the Workbook are helpful and it has been good to remind myself about 'who I am', in order to be able to put that forward to potential dates - especially as I feel I am quite a different person now that I am almost 20 years older than when I last dated! Equally useful for me has been working out my 'deal-breakers' and 'deal-makers' to help me be more focussed and intentional with my dates. I look forward to putting these tools and experiences into practice, as well as the sessions from Part 2 of the course, on my next dates and using the Workbook to reflect on how I am progressing towards finding my next relationship. Thank you, Rachel, for all your guidance and support!" (Zosia, 46)
"I have been attending Rachel’s seminars since 2017. Healthy Dating though was my first course. I like that Rachel blends academic knowledge and practical skills in her teaching, whilst also drawing upon learners’ own experiences. There are a number of resources shared and (optional) homework. Even though I consider myself to be quite well versed when it comes to contemporary dating and relationship skills, I still enjoyed the course and learnt some new things." (Richard, 47)
"I thoroughly enjoyed the healthy dating sessions. Initially I was slightly apprehensive as I am quite shy and introverted, however the sessions were very relaxed. Each session offered the opportunity to ask questions and discuss topics with other course members, although there is no pressure to do so. After each session homework was set to help reflect on what we had learnt. As a result I feel more empowered and confident as I start dating again." (Joe, 47) 
"It’s been good to challenge myself to do a course that involves opening up a bit about things I’d tend to keep hidden and not discuss. Definitely ‘outside my comfort zone’ discussing feelings and experiences of dating. But it’s been good to share experiences with others in a supportive atmosphere. The course contents is comprehensive and well-structured and there's no pressure to contribute any more than you feel comfortable." (Pete, 58)
"This kind of group was a real find. I found the mini-course very helpful by giving me space to think about important dating questions. The guys in the group were great. They were willing to share their experiences and wisdom and hearing from such nice open people in the same boat as me was very therapeutic and helpful. Rachel is a very organized, informative, involved, and gentle mediator and a very wise, informed, empathic guide. Many thanks, Rachel!" (Sarah, 67)
