A new online course designed to make learning more accessible and flexible for electricians has been launched by a leading electrical training provider.
The 18th Edition Online Course has been created by Sussex-based training provider Electrician Courses 4U and aims to provide new or existing electricians with an in-depth understanding of the most up to date wiring regulations.
The course, which is accredited by City & Guilds, covers the key chapters and appendices of the IET 18th Edition Wiring Regulations 2018 Amendment 2 book as well as providing students with the qualification needed to join a Government approved Part P scheme provider.
Since launching towards the end of last year the course has not only proven to be very popular but achieved extremely high pass rates too.
In total, nearly 200 customers have booked onto the course and to date 97% have passed the exam first time.
The online course provides electricians with a cost-effective and more flexible alternative to the in-centre 18th Edition course.
Whereas the in-centre course costs £385 including VAT, the online course is available at £225 including VAT.
The online course can also be completed in a students’ own time with the exam being taken at home as well.
Speaking on the launch and success of the course, Nigel Best, director of Electrician Courses 4U, said:
“We’re extremely proud to be able to offer a course which provides new and existing electricians with the opportunity to develop their knowledge of essential wiring regulations in a flexible and cost-effective way.
“We’ve already received lots of fantastic feedback from our customers who have been able to accommodate their studying around their day-to-day commitments including work and family life.
“At a time when value for money has never been more important we are delighted this is one of the most competitive courses of its kind on the market.”
Chris White is just one of many customers who has recently passed the 18th Edition online course.
Mr White, 41 from Hampshire, said:
“I made the decision to take the online course because the distance from the training centre and my family commitments made it challenging for me to spend an extended time away from home.
“The course is easy to navigate, provides everything needed to succeed in the exam and can be taken from the comfort of home.”
As a result of the success of this course, Electrician Courses 4U is currently in the process of rolling out a number of additional online courses and remote learning opportunities including the City & Guilds 2365 Level 2 course and the City & Guilds 2365 Level 3 course.
Both of these courses are structured in two parts with online learning being followed by in-centre and practical training at the provider’s teaching facilities.
