Discuss A question for domestic installers who are with Stroma...... in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Good question. I need to go and reread their terms and conditions. The inspector on my last year's assessment visit mumbled something about it but said it's not yet a requirement, but that I should probably start keeping records just in case.Is the NICEIC an accredited body that has an approved qualification for its members and therefore require them to submit their CPD to retain membership?
Have you ever registered yourself on Home | Electrotechnical Certification Scheme - https://www.ecscard.org.uk/ like you I had a JIB card 40 years ago, when I registered on the site I found they already knew quite a lot about me from my old JIB cardI was JIB graded about forty years ago. My boss got the card for me. I thought nothing of it and put it somewhere never to be seen again. Just did not realise the importance of it. Carried on wiring house shops offices and some factory work in London, Scotland and so on until the Part P thing which I again resisted for around fifteen years then finally caved in and joined Stroma. Went over to NAPIT last year and there was a snag with my qualifications I took a few years ago. 2397 QS course. However the guy/organisation sent me a level 3 cert and I did do a portfolio with it finally. Anyway after a bit of a kerfuffle they decided I could join anyway as I was with an existing scheme and accepted my TPC, EICR and commercial and domestic level from STROMA and afforded me the same competencies as I had already enjoyed. Strangely they did not want to see my commercial work as they were already satisfied with it. They insisted on visiting a crumby little domestic ring circuit I had done. All in all I would say the bar has been raised which is not a bad thing. Of course this only catches the conscientious among us and does nothing to address cowboys and ne'er do wells plying their con games on the gullible which is somewhat infuriating.
