SJIB (Scottish) Certification Scheme SJIB/JIB Approved Electrician card renew

[boogaloo]

Hey Guys, my JIB approved electrician expired in 2001. I enquired about getting it renewed and one of the requirements is a 17th edition update course. The SJIB in Scotland reccommended a course by SELECT which is -
Requirements for Electrical Installations BS 7671 : 2008 (IEE Wiring Regulations 17th Edition)

Sorry about the formatting, I cut and pasted it.
Has anyone done this course? It is a one day course. Is there an exam at the end of it?
Any info on this would be appreciated.
thanks

You will also need to do your ECS exam as well unless you have one of the exemptions.

Do you have the 2391?

I don't think there is an exam, this isn't the usual City & Guilds 2382-20, there is no mention of exams here:

SELECT - Scotland's Electrical Trade Association

The 17th update is 30 multiple choice questions, can be paper or on computer.

Did you read the link?

Doesn't state that there is no exam in the link.

I couldn't care less about colour or creed but since when did farting about on a days course replace an exam?

More dilution of the workforce and I don't say that to offend anyone.

It's in the same vein as the NAPIT open-book '2391' !!
