Flexible training options:

Firstly, many of our electrician courses can be taken on a weekend basis as appose to the traditional Monday - Friday. This option hopefully gives those who have a job in the week the opportunity to gain the same award. You will achieve the exact same qualification the only difference is that it will take you longer completing the course over a series of weekends rather than in the week.

Secondly, we have a few courses available on a 'Home-Study' basis, which aims to reduce the total amount of time needed at our facility. These courses do this by giving you a 'Home-Study Pack' and access to the online learning platform 'Smart-screen' with these two tools you learn the theory side of the trade in your own time. The once you are confident in your new-found knowledge you will attend ou centre to learn the practical side and complete assessments. Reducing the time needed here at our facility on courses like our Home Study Electrics Level 2 - From the traditional 6-weeks to 4-weeks that can be chosen by you and broken up to suit your schedule.
