What does the course include?
The current QCF requires you to cover the following units:
- Ensure safe site working
- Diagnose and correct electrical faults
- Provide technical and functional information
- Maintain a safe and healthy working environment
- Prepare to install wiring systems, wiring enclosures and equipment
- Install wiring systems, wiring enclosures and equipment

What are the benefits for employers?
It is a legal requirement that employers in the industry have qualified electricians working for them. Failure to do so will increase the health and safety risks and have a negative impact on reputation.
What do I need to get onto this course?
Participants need or working towards the 17th Edition wiring regulations and have passed City & Guilds 236 part two together with or working towards City & Guilds 2330 Level 3 or equivalent qualification, and currently working within the industry.
Proof of qualifications will be required to be produced at an interview with the course tutor prior to enrolment.
To complete the QCF, a practical performance assessment such as the AM2 or equivalent must also have been completed. There may be exemptions to this if you are a practicing operative.
Our ‘QCF Level 3 Electro Technical Services’ students have said:
“The tutor was very helpful and gives me all information to do my portfolio. I am now qualified electrician. I can take on more work. “ – Tommy Chapman
How will I be assessed?
QCF’s were introduced by the Government to assess occupational competence in the workplace. The QCF is completed while you are at work, via a log book and supported by evidence. Evidence is often in the form of photos, risk assessments, job sheets, test result sheets and any other relevant documents. The Logbook is then assessed by a qualified assessor from the college. A number of assessment visits will also take place during your training.
Where does it lead?
The topics covered will support entry to higher level programmes such as Electrical Engineering and Electronic Engineering.
