One of the best decision I’ve made for…

One of the best decision I’ve made for my education and learning. I recently completed my level 2 diploma and my IET regulations and everyone there helped me in every possible way they could. Specially my tutor Latheian McCalla; he was always there to support me and help me whereever I needed him. He’s one of the reason I passed it in good marks. And thanks to Joshua Jarvis for helping me out connecting with people and companies to find a job; keeping me updating in every step of the process. All the staff members are also nice and cheerful. Thanks to Richard, for convincing me to join Elec training.

Guys doing hard work in silence.

Guys doing as promised, however patience is recommended. I would advise to the team more direct approach to each student. More frequent contact with progress details would help not feeling forgotten. Ultimately, despite the poor communication, I am willing to award the maximum number of stars because the result exceeded my expectations.

Positive experience with Elec Training

Positive experience with Elec Training. After completing my Skillscan in February, I was able to get a job placement by April to complete my NVQ 2357. Josh was supportive and helped me through the process, especially with finding the placement. I’d recommend their service to others looking to progress in the industry.

Thank you for your enquiry. We’re really pleased to hear you’re looking to progress onto a Level 3 electrical course. If you already have electrical experience or a certificate from Bangladesh, we can guide you on the best route into Level 3 and whether any of your previous learning can be recognised.

The best next step would be to speak with our team so we can understand your background and advise you properly on entry requirements and the right pathway for you.

Thank you for reaching out to Elec Training, we look forward to helping you get started.

Liam has provided positive support.

Liam has been great; tirelessly contacting companies on my behalf to find me a placement to complete my NVQ. With Liam’s support I’ve had some positive interactions with electrical companies so it’s hopefully only a matter of the ‘right timing’ when I can start work with them. Thanks so much Liam. :-) I’m pleased I enrolled with Elec Training.

Thank you for your review, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

It’s great to hear how proactive Liam has been in supporting you and reaching out to companies on your behalf. That stage of getting in front of employers is a big part of the NVQ journey, so it’s good to see those positive interactions starting to come through.

You’re absolutely right, sometimes it does come down to timing, but it sounds like you’re in a strong position and moving in the right direction.

We’re glad you chose Elec Training and we’ll continue to support you as you progress.

Level 2 with Mark and Neil at Elec training

Just finished up my Level 2 with Mark and Neil at Elec training and couldn’t be happier, learned a lot in a short amount of time, they were extremely supportive with everything and helped guide me when I couldn’t understand some things to get where I need to be!

It’s good to hear you enjoyed your Level 2 with Mark and Neil. They always put a lot of effort into supporting learners and making sure everything clicks, especially when you’re picking things up quickly in a short space of time.

Fair play to you as well, progressing that fast and staying committed makes a big difference.

Specialist tutors who know their industry well, would recommend !

Extremely high quality education given to me from the team, in a positive learning atmosphere.
Prior to the course, I was only ever working around electricians on occasion, thus never involved in hands on work within this field.
However with great support from my tutors (huge shout out and massive thank you to Neil Mark, and Laethian) I passed my level 2 with concretely good guidance along the way, which was a very enjoyable experience to learn within this class collective
Big thanks to the team at the Faraday Campus and all the best for the foreseeable future :))

Thanks Elec-training for all their help. The tutors Neil, Laethian, and Mark were amazing and helped everybody in my cohort pass all of the exams. Mark especially was a great help in the practical and really helped me when I struggled since I have no practical or trade experience.

Thanks to Josh also as he was great at finding me a job and managed to get me one in around 3 weeks. He even kept checking up to update me about potential jobs and checked that when I did get a placement that I was happy with it.

My only criticism is that they could give you better warning and a better insight into what the course will contain and how difficult the exams are. Also I believe that the first “in college week” wasn’t great as we were supposed to be preparing for an exam but spent 3 of the 5 days doing other bits which I believe they could have fit into one day.

Other then that I have no complaints and would recommend this company to everybody
