Get 18th, Get testing and inspection, go to work?

Wow, so you nearly became a plumber or a painter?

someone was giving you a push in to a field you would ultimately excel in.

could be worse, you could be on a forum trying to explain what the best type of roller is to paint a ceiling or how to paint a door without leaving drips running down it.

Don't, you'll make Dan realise there's no decoratorsforum.net or plasterersforums.net

The intention is always to learn as you go, but others in here are saying competency isn't gained until several years of shadowing some other guy who has the same qualification as you.

I think that's nonsense for reasons i already outlined.

The qualification proves the competency otherwise you wouldn't pass it. Those who want to gate keep electrics think otherwise but that's fine because they only live on the internet.

This old thread reminds me of a more recent one.

There's a good reason for that...
