Training courses

Hi,

I have been a long-time user of the forums and I am involved in supervising electrical work (by subcontractors) as part of my job as facilities manager. 

I'd like to think that I'm fairly competent in my knowledge and limitations of BS7671.

I think its time I took some sort of course in BS7671, so that I can back up my opinion and instructions and legitimately carry out minor jobs at work here and there. I don't have any plans to become an electrician - it looks very dirty!

Can anyone recommend what course I should be taking, providers etc, or just advice in general?

  • Thanks for the responses. We, as an organisation, ask that contractors have the C&G 2382 qualification. Recent experience has taught me that I would only employ apprentice-trained people into roles like this and the jokes about the two week wonders etc is all making a bit more sense. 

    There is no way I'm doing an NVQ, I'd never be able to justify it for my job. I do think taking the 2382 course would be beneficial, and I would be able to justify it. It is a start either way.
