Advice on training

Hi guys I hope this is the right section for this post. I was looking for a-bit of advice regarding experience and training. I’ve been in electrical maintenance for almost 5 years now. My qualification is engineering maintenance electrical NVQ 3. I’m also studying towards a HNC in electrical engineering. I feel like I lack experience in electrical installations and testing although I have also completed my test and inspection. I feel like I’m in a difficult place at the moment as I know I can do the work just lack confidence. I’ve tried reaching out to people to get more installations and testing experience unpaid and managed to get a day testing but it’s been a struggle.
I guess my ultimate goal is to be one of these electricians that can turn there hand to anything.

Sorry for the long post, any advice will be greatly appreciated

  • One way of gaining practical experience is to do work for yourself, friends and family. Within reason, you can take as long as you like and re-do stuff if it doesn't work first time.

    If you want to get on a CPS, I am afraid that you will have to jump through the various hoops which they set.

  • And pay them lots of money to fend off any customers you may upset!
