Course Content

Your knowledge and skills are assessed by performance units, consisting of real evidence you will collect from your onsite workplace. The 2357 Level 3 NVQ covers the Domestic, Commercial and Industrial sectors across a range of units, the work will require evidence from new Installations as listed below:

​

  • Health and Safety

  • Inspection and Testing

  • Fault Finding

  • AM2 (The AM2 must be taken at an approved "NET Centre," and is an additional cost)

  • A Short theory Bridging Unit

 

The 2357 NVQ level 3 is a portfolio of your onsite work. Unlike the classroom or online learning based courses, the NVQ is creating a portfolio containing examples of tasks you have completed as an Electrician onsite. It is necessary to keep up to date with the latest standards, technologies and practices in the industry when gathering your evidence. 

​

You can take the NVQ at your own pace and complete it as quickly as you like – with the average time being around six months. There is however a maximum time limit of three years, after which you would have to re-register and recomplete, including payment.

 

The units can be done in any order, we can assist you if require further guidance.
