City & Guilds 2330 Level 2 & 3 with C&G 2382-2377-2393-2391

Total Electrical Training: City & Guilds 2330 Level 2 & 3 with C&G 2382-2377-2393-2391

Next Start Date: 08th August 2011 is now full and the next available start date is 24th October 2011 for 8 Consecutive Weeks

You may have heard about changes being proposed for City & Guilds training and also wondering how this might affect construction trade qualifications, especially if you are thinking of beginning your training with Able Skills on the City & Guilds 2330 - Technical Certificate in Electrotechnical Technology.

The new qualifications will replace the current ‘technical certificates' and NVQs at levels 2 and 3 for the Electrical industry but not until July 2012 which means that the current route of the C&G 2330 technical certificates remain valid qualifications and an acceptable route into the electrical industry.

So therefore, 2011 sees the introduction of 2 routes into the Electrical industry. The newly accredited C&G 2357 NVQ Diploma and separately, the already established C&G 2330 at both levels 2 and 3.

What can you achieve with Able Skills Total Electrician Training?

City & Guilds have extended the current ‘end registration' dates for C&G 2330 levels 2 and 3. This will allow continued provision of these courses at Able Skills ...

Until the changeover, which has had many start dates deferred, the industry still recognises City & Guilds entry qualification for electrician training as follows :

City & Guilds 2330 level 2

An 8 week course of intensive training

City & Guilds 2330 level 3

A 5 week course of intensive training.

The end registration date for these awards has been extended by City & Guilds to July 2011 which means that this qualification remains valid and industry recognised and achievable at Able Skills.
