Advanced Apprenticeship in Electrical Installation

The Programme

This course is for people who wish to enter the electrical installation, contracting or associated industries via a work placement.

The programme covers electrical installation theory and regulations, as well as a wide range of practical skills associated with electrical work, together with the associated theory and science.

The Programme Content

Bright sparks should consider this Apprenticeship, which gives a complete grounding in the scientific and practical aspects
of electrical installation. Apprentices learn how to install and commission electrical systems - test them, inspect them, find and diagnose faults. Attendance at College includes studying science based subjects to an advanced level and practical workshop based activities. They will also need to undertake a practical competency assessment in the latter end of the Apprenticeship.

Entry Requirements

You must be employed in the electrical industry in order to start this programme, have a good basic education and could have achieved a City & Guilds 2330 Electro Technical Certificate at Level 2 through our Pre Apprenticeship Programme.

A colour blindness test is carried out as part of the initial assessment.
