[Guest123]

Theres always a lot of confusion with regard ECS & JIB matters, hopefully this will help out a bit.

Also, the ECS card has a new website, with a lot of useful and more importantly understandable info on it.

I also heard a wee rumor that the you can also include CRB check on JIB cards

Note for Scottish guys the SJIB card has different qualifications and their web site is How can I get a Card? (Electrician / Approved Electrician / Technician) - Scottish Joint Industry Board

[Guest 004]

Apply for the grade, the JIB will then advise in writing what you need

 

[onmyway]

Would I have to inform my wrk first?

to be graded as senior graded electrical trainee you need to have levels two and three of the 2330.

I am also looking at applying for an ECS card and wondered if anyone can help?

I am currently nearing the end of my 1st year C&G 2357 and have 18months on-site experience. The ECS website doesn't mention the C&G 2357, what card should I be applying for?

As far as I know, you will need the current equivalent of the 2360 pt 2 and the nvq 3 log book for the gold sparks card. Give them a call to find out.

 

[Johnuk]

yea you need your nvq 3 to get your gold card

I have got 17th edition, NVQ 3, 2360 part 1 and failed 1 exam on part 2, never had chance to retake which I regret! But from this can I apply for a JIB card and if so what grade will I get? Been a spark for 9 years never had the need to get a JIB all ways had a CSCS.

Hi Whaler,

As you have achieved your 236 parts one and two before 1996 you should not need to complete your NVQ etc but you will need to take your ECS test (about £40) and once completed you should be able to apply to JIB and get your gold card. You should go on ecs website and complete an application form, they will let you know where your nearest centre is where you can sit the test http://www.ecscard.org.uk/ecs_health_and_safety_test.aspx

You would also be advised to contact the JIB and explain that you have your 236 pre 96 and confirm the above with them as well just to be on safe side.

before 1996 no NVQ, but will need to do AM2 pratical. Easiest thing to do is to apply, and they (JIB) will tell you what you require.
