Im one of the few people who can honestly say that they have done both courses, (well only the exams for the 2330).I was a combat engineer in the arrm, and also trained as an electrician. they used to teach the 2360 part 1, 2 and C. I broke my keg just before the AM2, so left the army with nothing, as if you didnt complete everything, you recieved nothing.
I had done everythiong apart from the AM2, boiler controls, HV jointing (yes they teach that to army sparks) and the final exams.
I left the army in 2007, and a year later, i took the exams for the 2330 level 3. I passed all of them first time, and i found them alot easier than the 236 papers i had seen. The assignmenmts for the 236 were harder. i didnt revise, and hadnt really taken a proper interest in electrics. all i could think about was the money.
in the 236, we were taught how to bend conduit, fabricate bends & sets in tray and trunking, MICC (pyro), testing and basic design.
i dont know exactly what your taught on the 2330, but the bloke i work with whos got his 2330 L3, is severley lacking in theory knowledge, and doesnt know how to bend conduit, or tray and trunking. He can gland cables well, but thats all he did in his last job.
Saying that, ive worked with sparks who have done the 2360, ansd they've been crap too.
