Electrical Installation

Electrical Installation

There are many different ways to work as an electrician, from being a self-employed general technician working on domestic repairs or new home builds, to big engineering projects or lighting stadiums and festivals. You could specialise in installation, maintenance, construction of systems, repair or even work supporting highways systems.

To qualify as an electrician studying full-time you need to complete both the Level 2 and 3 one-year diplomas and then the final two years of an apprenticeship at Level 3 to become fully qualified, alternatively you can study the apprenticeship for four years.
