Can’t work in Ireland

A young man from the U.K. with the electrotechnical NVQ L3, 2391 and 18th Edition has been excluded from a job in the Republic of Ireland because their NVQ is said to acquire a level 6 status as indeed does the Scottish NVQ. The NVQ L3 in the U.K. is mapped only to Level 5. The essential criteria for the job was level 6. Believe it or not, the job is nothing other than installing meters for ESB.

anyone know how these qualifications are mapped?

  • There was a discussion about Brexit earlier this morning on Radio 5, it was said you can apply for citizenship of another EU country, but it doesn’t help you with  recognition of qualifications to actually be able to work there.


    So going back to the original post, it just looks like UK electrical trade qualifications are not rated in other countries as being an equivalent of their own.
