You could deisgn an installation in May, and install it in Sep to BS7671:2001 as ammended 2004.

You could start an installation in May, which would not be complete until Oct, this could also be done to the 16th

So these are two "certain circumstances" when you can still work to the 16th after 01 Jul

Regarding 2391, I am the training manager for a private training company, I deal with C&G on a daily basis, and also teach 2391 (as well as 2392). I have devoloved authority from C&G to independently authorise my own practical exam results for both 2392 and 2391 - and they dont give that away with a box of cornflakes!

You are being somewhat pedantic. By your reasoning, there has NEVER been a 2391 then! 2391, as with most C&G quals, have a number afterwards to differntiate between sub-quals. The point is it has ALWAYS had it, so there has never been a 'stand-alone' 2391 qual, it has always been 2391- (something)

The point is it does NOT need upgrading, as you have suggest earlier, and THAT is misleading people.

People have become confused because 2391 was changing to part of the 2392 series, but C&G quickly changed their minds, because of people like me standing up at their seminars complaining.

So people ended up thinking that 2392 was the 'new' 2391.

I have worked hard on this forum to let people know what is happening - 2392 is new, and is only level 2, 2391 is remaining unchanged (save the number change at the end) and no-one who is 2391 qualified is ALLOWED to upgrade their qual, never mind needs to!

Upgarding to a BS7671:2008 qual automatically upgrades your 2391 qual.

You appear to be trying to 'stamp your authority' here, but in my opinion you are not helping matters, in this this transitional period when there is a lot of heresay and conjencture out there

oh, and I would still like to know how someone would be in breach of the EAWR's??????
Well said Shakey it's not the first posting that this person has tried to say that only he is correct

2391 Is The Only Way To Go,dont Go For A Lengthy Course Spread Out Over Numerous Weeks As You Will Forget So Much,do It Over A Four Day Course As This Is The Most Successful For Pass Marks I Have Found.

£ 500 for the 4 day course (if it includes the exam ) is a lot cheaper than mine was 2 years ago
I paid almost £800
When I was taking the course for dec 06 exam the government decided to drop the electrics from the Hip
What a let down that was
Knowing my luck If I had failed they would have kept it in, just to make things awkward for me
Damn politicians
Just had a look at the 2391 certificate and it does have the numbers after it 2391-01
It was a nice feeling passing that exam but to be honest it has made no difference to my working life at all
But good luck to anybody taking it My experience of it was that a lot of hard work had to be put in, so to anybody attaining it You can be proud of yourselves
