The course is the best possible online experience you can have with a fully accredited certificate on completion of the exam. All instructions for installing the software and licencing it will be given prior to the course beginning. No prior knowledge is required for this course as it starts from scratch and assumes no previous experience, you will reach the skilled level where you can look at becoming a programmer, get into engineering maintenance in an industrial environment, fault find or make amendments to programs, this is the course for you. The ‘Typical’ 5 day course covers 2 of the major manufacturers, Siemens S7 and Allen Bradley (but will be slightly bias towards Allen Bradley due to the simulation software being used, which will also be given to you to keep). The course aims to be 90% practical, as we believe the easiest way to learn is to do it! A full set of course notes and manuals will be emailed to you.

This course explains the principles of risk acceptance and whether risks are reduced to As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). It also explores risk treatment options and the basic fundamentals of the emergency management life cycle.

Who should learn? This course has been designed for those who are new to EV Charging Installations or for those requiring a better understanding of electric vehicle charging equipment installations. Learners using this course could be from any background or industry sector, from apprentices through to senior managers. Course Introduction This online course will cover the key aspects of the design, specification and installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation. This course will look at the requirements detailed in Section 722 of BS 7671:2018+A1:2020 as well as the IET Code of Practice for Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation, 4th Edition. The course will also help to enhance your expertise on the best practice for Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation, providing you with a deeper understanding of how to select and use the correct earthing systems to protect against electric shock as well looking into vehicle-to-grid, on street installations and smart infrastructure integration. We would recommend that you purchase a copy of The Code of Practice For Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation, Fourth Edition to get the best out of this course. Learning Objectives Through this online course, you will learn: How to specify Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installations How to design electrical installations containing electric vehicle charging and supply equipment The steps involved in planning, installing and commissioning of electric vehicle charging points Key risks and hazards for various types of installation, and how to address them, including: Dwellings, Commercial and Industrial premises, On-Street installations, and filling stations.

The 18th edition course is an online short course aimed at anyone involved in the design, construction and inspection and testing of electrical systems, also a nationally recognised ‘must have’ qualification for companies seeking to recruit electricians. It is intended to introduce the candidate to a working knowledge of the Wiring Regulations along with a brief overview of the Electricity at Work Regulations covering their statutory duties. Previous knowledge of the regulations is not assumed, however, a fundamental knowledge of electrical principles is assumed.

This course provides an overview of a number of high-profile accidents, highlighting the importance of risk and safety management. It explores what risk is, describes the role and use of risk management throughout the project lifecycle and explores the benefits of the risk management process.

You need to have a good working knowledge of the 17th Edition as only the updates to the regulations will be covered. Save time and money by covering the topics you need for the new regulations, without having to go over all that you already know. It includes Amendment 2 to BS7671:2018+A2:2022.

Who is this Level 3 NVQ aimed at? The electrical NVQ is designed for those with five or fewer years of experience in the electrical industry, and who have completed their City & Guilds 2365 Level two and three diplomas. Prior to joining, candidates will be assessed on their readiness for the Level 3 NVQ. What does this Electrical NVQ cover? This Level 3 Diploma covers Domestic, Commercial, and Industrial sectors – it will include a range of units of New Installations such as: Health and Safety Overseeing and organising work environment Applying environmental legislation Inspection and Testing Fault finding Professional discussions with assessors AM2 (this is a separate course and has an additional cost.) This is not a training course; it is an assessment of competence. Unlike other courses, this will not be based in a classroom or workshop – instead, candidates will complete this qualification on work placement. Candidates will complete electrical installations on-site, and they will then be assessed by a qualified assessor, building their portfolio. Only a small amount of this will involve going to a training centre. Before entering a workplace, your assessor will go over and help you understand: How to build a portfolio What range of evidence is required to meet the qualification criteria What assessors are looking for in order for candidates to demonstrate full professional competence Assessors will use a range of methods to evaluate candidate’s electrical installations such as; witness testimony, photographic evidence, direct observation, and reflective accounts. How long does the NVQ take to complete? The length differs for each candidate as it depends on how quickly they take to cover the types of work required to complete all units. If you have been working in the industry, previous jobs can be used as evidence to hurry the process up. What qualifications will I gain? Once candidates have completed their portfolio and other assessments, they will gain a formal City & Guilds Level 3 NVQ certificate. When candidates have completed their NVQ, they must move on to the AM2 end point assessment, which must be completed at an AM2 approved centre, such as our Sheffield centre.

Virtual Classroom – Our hi tec virtual learning suite enables you as the trainee to experience exactly the same course and level of interaction with a trainer as though you were in the same room as them. This isn’t a slideshow-based course, it’s a real tutor, in a real room taking you through all you need to know to be successful in your City and Guilds 2391 – 52. Utilising equipment and software, the theoretical part of the course will be taught over 3 days via the internet. During this time, you will be taught the theory-based elements below, also allowing ample time for questions face to face with the tutor. The instructor will go through everything that you will be expected to know about Inspection and Testing on both new and existing installations. You will be given access to our dedicated online portal to work through sample questions in your own time until the information becomes second nature to you. Your only hardware prerequisite for this part of the course is access to the internet, whether it be on a computer or a smart device. The second stage of the course will involve you attending one of our numerous training centres around the UK, for both the practical training and the examinations over a 2.5 day period. This will be booked for a later date and one of our team will be in touch with you to arrange this. During your time at one of our centres you will be taught the inspection and testing practical elements you require on individual training rigs, with equipment and testers for each and every individual person. (Our centres are ALL Covid secure and the training bays, etc are all socially distanced). This City & Guilds qualification is aimed at practicing electricians who have not carried out inspection and testing since qualifying or who require some update of training. This qualification helps you to develop the knowledge and practical skills required to professionally install and carry out initial verification and periodic inspection and testing on electrical installations. It is expected that suitable candidates have a basic knowledge and understanding of electrical science and principles and experience of electrical installation work. This is an essential skill for any electrical installer.

Who is the course aimed at? This course is designed for both engineers with experience, and also for new entrants from a non-engineering background who want to pursue a new career as a Service Engineer. For those without an engineering background, it is recommended that you have a minimum grade C at GSCE Maths. Click here for more information
