Electrician Training Course
New Career Skills (NCS) Electrician Courses are aimed at people with little or no electrical experience and aged between 20 to 65. Whether you have never picked up a screw driver or have rewired a kitchen, the programmes are tailored to fit around your experience and learning speed.
The electrician course takes the blended learning approach to your development. This is a mix of theory that you do at home in your own time and practical hands-on training that you do at one of the Centre of Excellence Training Facilities.
NCS deliver their electrician courses in this way so that you are in complete control of the speed in which you study and complete the course. Most NCS students have both family and work commitments so they fit the course around them. This works well for students as they do not have to give up their job until they have the confidence and skills to move into the electrical industry.
You can do the theory at home when you have time, maybe in the evenings or at weekends, and you can take some time off work to fit in the practical training sessions. The practical sessions are broken down into a number of week long blocks, which will be spent at an NCS Centre of Excellence.
At the Practical sessions you will put into practice what you have been studying in the Theory and actually see the end result of your hard work. As most NCS students will tell you, the learning curve is steep and you will be very surprised how much you learn in a short space of time.
During the Electrician courses you will learn a whole manner of things, anything from using various tools to rewiring a house. You will be given the skills you need to get into the industry. As the Tutors, Assessors and Trainers will tell you, they would have sufficient confidence, in your ability, to invite you into their homes to do an electrical job.
Throughout the electrician courses you will have access to a dedicated Tutor to help and advise you. Once you have finished the course you will not only have access to your Tutor, but also a specialist career search and business start-up team. They will be available to assist you in securing employment or starting your own business.
