[QUOTE="Mastbruch, post: 451737, member: 29429"] Afternoon everyone. Apologies if this is in the wrong section. Im 43 yrs old & would like to persue a career as an electrician (improver) I fully understand becoming an electrician require yrs of hard work & proper on site practical work with qualified electricians with many still learning after 20 yrs in the trade. These are if I understand proper proven well experienced electricians. Anyway, although I would like to have the relevant electrical certificates etc I'm not looking to go down the commercial route or new build on site route, Ive done this for 12 yrs in another trade & site work for me is not what it once was. I know college does the Level 2 & 3 route which is 3 yrs & would rather go down this route as believe this route is better, but I also looked at these 5 week electrical courses ( now I'm not stupid to believe whatever the trade especially the electrician course won't make you an electrician it might give you the basics) So my preferred route is definitely college but wondered what others think as I've done the college route before. The only college route I can go on is an evening course. Again I understand these college courses or private courses won't make you an electrician but it is a starting point, we all have to start somewhere. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
