Just to say hello to everyone in the forum. Joined a few days ago trying to get some advice by browsing but had not introduced myself . I'm 29 two kids married mortage the whole package. Been working for the same company for 8 years. Decided to do an electrical course through them in 2000 as there was money available for training. Did c&g 2360 and 16th edition and that was as far as i got with the company i passed my exams in 2004 have done bits and pieces for other people some three phase installations in the factory and find i'm not getting the experience i need any advice on how to progress from here.

Hi, welcome aboard Gav. So what kinda thing would you like to get into?

GAV632

I would like to get into domestic work. I need to try and find some one who will take me on and put me through the rest of my qualifications.

Cirrus

What other quals do you want? Will your current employer pay for you to sit the 17th update course? Other than that are you looking to take your 2391 test and inspection???

GAV632

Have not enquired about 17th edition but i had a talk about doing my inspection and testing . Only problem is that i've got no experience in inspec and test so think i will struggle with the course. Can't get the experience with my company but they may be willing to put me through it.

Sounds like the 2392 is just the thing for you - a 'watered' down version of the 2391.

Sorry not been on forum for few days thanx for the advice cirrus i think the 2392 will be the way forward. Have also spoke to company about letting me go work for another firm to get the experience aswell no response on that yet though. Cheers once again.
