Resettlement
Armed Forces Resettlement Training Courses
Electrical Courses Limited is proud to offer training courses for military leavers and ex-servicemen and women during resettlement. We are ELC registered, and our Managing Director and lecturer, Neil Phillips, served in the army himself. His experience gives him the advantage of understanding what it is like to leave the military and enter civilian life. Because of Neil’s armed forces background, we provide the best support during this major life change and help you achieve your goal of becoming a qualified electrician on civilian street.
Which courses to study to become a qualified Electrician?
In order for you to become a qualified electrician you have to study and take part in the three main courses which are Level 2 in Electrical Installations (2365), Level 3 in Electrical Installations (2365) and NVQ in Electrotechnical Systems (2357). Level 2 and Level 3 courses are taught in our centre near Cambridge and the NVQ portfolio is for electrical improvers who are in their final stages of becoming a qualified Electrician.
The studying environment you are in is supportive, friendly and professional. The classes are taught in classrooms and in a workshop where all students will have their own dedicated wall to work on. This way they can fully concentrate on their work with the tools assigned to them.
The duration of Level 2 course is 8 weeks (Monday-Friday) and starting dates are either in September or in March.
Level 3 courses duration is also 8 weeks (Monday-Friday) and starts shortly after the Level 2 course finishes.
What does Kelvin Billings, Ex Royal Marine say about us?
As part of my resettlement, I chose to study as an electrician to work offshore on wind turbines in renewables. I chose Electrical Courses because I couldn’t spend two to three years training at college while paying my mortgage and bills. I first heard about Electrical Courses Limited through my friend Robbie, who highly recommended them, so I enrolled on the next available course.
During the course I felt that the teaching was run perfectly between theory and practical. Being more of a practical person than academic I felt that Neil got the balance right. The lecturer explained subjects clearly using practical terms and lots of helpful examples
I am now working offshore as a Wind Turbine Service & Trouble-shooter technician. I am progressing my electrical skills and enjoying life as a civilian.
