I'll pop my 2 pence in for Access Training. Just finished my first of 4 weeks there and pretty impressed. !st week a bit heavy going with a lot of theory and facilities were nice and new.

And before anyone asks I don't work for them or get commission- just a happy customer. PM me if you want any more details or a chat.

I did the full course with them but started on the week 2 because i had done the basic all ready.Good bits very relaxed atmosphere easy going tutor, bad bits course manuals are out of date, not giving you all the books youi need, all the pratical work was hard to do because of lack of equipment that was in working order.
Looking back i would of been better paying £3000 to work with a electrician i would of learned so much more and take my exams on their own.

Many thanks for this, you have made me think twice about going with them.

I'm having at look at access2tradecareers on Thursday, I'll let you know what I find.

Well, paid a visit to Access2TradeCareers in Hartlebury Worcestershire, the place is brand new and very big, but almost empty, very few people around.

It's in a start-up phase, so still not sure about them.

On Wednesday I'm paying Access Training in Cardiff a visit, see what their like.

regards

Hi There, I'm based in Brighton, but am/was thinking of going to Main Electrical as I have friends I can stay with in Watford

I spoke to a VERY talkative lady from there the other day (hard to get a question in) but she said...

17th 2382 C&G
PAT Testing
EAL Level 2
Part P assessment

were £3300 including VAT all books etc then

C&G 2391-10 and C&G 2392-10

were £1200

This seems a lot cheaper than many other courses, but I'd love to know more about what wasn't provided, broken or out of date so I can challenge them before I sign up. Or if anyone knows of a good competitive course in or near Sussex.

Thanks

F
