[QUOTE="revjames, post: 257265, member: 5256"] Yes Until the return of common sense, less restrictive red tape and a return of a proper 4 year apprenticeship where the trainee worked alongside a spark and got hands on training as well as decent qualifications like BTEC, HNC etc, then I cant see any hope for the trade. Too many monkeys (double glazing salesmen etc) turning their hand thinking a quick course can give them a respected trade overnight. All part P has done has stopped legitimate, experienced sparkys doing domestic work and allowed the space to be filled by either: Inexperienced recently qualified 5DWs who can do the paperwork Cowboys and DIYers who dont give a stuff about any paperwork Rant over but in answer to the OP YES [/QUOTE]
