So you think you want to become an electrician but don’t know where to start? When you’re researching electrical training courses – please take our advice!

Some training providers sell courses that don’t fit with what the industry would class as ‘qualified’. You could spend thousands and end up being out of pocket with qualifications that are not recognised by the electrical industry and do not give you the full range of skills needed.

We want to help you avoid these ‘Rogue Trainers’ – training providers that are more concerned with taking your money than giving you the right qualification.

Beware of expensive training packages that promise much but fail to deliver – read our advice on training packages and qualification ‘bundles’
