We provide a wide range of Electrical Training, offering competence
based assessment where possible.
We are an approved JTL Comp’EX’ Assessment Centre,
one of only 11 nationally, offering EX01, EX02, EX03 and EX04
Assessments for full Comp’EX’ and Comp’EX’
Refresher.
We are also an approved City & Guilds Centre for Electrical
Training and Examinations, offering this in our own centre and
on customer premises, with online testing available at both
if facilities permit.
In recent years we have made a significant investment in our
Electrical Training resources and now offer a greatly expanded
range of scheduled courses. We can also provide tailor made
solutions if clients require this.
