I've got an engineer doing their level 3 at Carshalton College on Saturdays. May be worth a look.

Hi thanks I checked that college it's not bad it's pretty close however the only level 3 course they do is Level 3 Diploma in Electrotechnology (Building & Structures) - City & Guilds 2365, so I have to give them a call not sure if this is the same one I want to do but it is 2365 so it might be similar and will allow me to progress to get my gold card as an electrician.

Hi Tfo welcome to the forum
for your information I'm currently doing the city & guilds level 3 2365 diploma and it is the follow on course from the level 2 2365 diploma. This course is a very intense theory based course and I find that being in a classroom environment certainly helps me and I can honestly say I would not have been as confident now if I could not have cross referenced my calculations with my fellow classmates. I have helped my younger classmates through the practical level 2 diploma as they had little practical experience and they are now returning the favour by helping me on the theory calculations I struggle with as I'm a mature student. My level 3 course is full time 2 days a week and I work on electrical installations the other 3 days a week. Home learning and study at home courses are good for some people but my personal advice is you cant beat a classroom environment where you will have students at the same level as you and who will be able to help you where you are struggling.
Good luck and stick with it you will need the level 3 diploma certification and the NVQ/AM2 to gain a fully qualified electricians gold card.

Hi uksrevivor thanks for the advice I think you're absolutely right I'm the type of person that learns more in a classroom environment, that's why am looking for a place that will do the course in a classroom environment, but it has to be in the evenings or weekends part time and I seem to have difficulties finding a place like that in London. Because I work on a construction site as a mate self-employed Monday to Friday and I don't want to lose two days pay going to college when I have the weekends free and evenings to do that.
