Electrical Training
The UK’s leading trainer for the electrical industry
At Trade Skills 4U we offer a comprehensive range of professional qualifications for the electrical trades, together with customised training programmes for electrical teams working in specialist industries. We lead the market, not only because of the number of qualifications that we deliver each year, but also in terms of our expertise.
We are determined to drive training standards forward in the electrical industry and we were the first specialist electrical training centre in the UK to be certified as a IET centre of excellence.
Our training programmes go beyond the qualifications in order to ensure our students leave their courses feeling completely competent.
‘‘
The trainers have a friendly, ‘we’ll get you through it’
approach. They have done the job themselves, so
they are able to relate the theory to practical
examples from their own experience... this makes it
so much easier to absorb the information.

This course will give you training, qualifications, skills and knowledge to enable you to register with the NICEIC, ELECSA etc on their domestic installer schemes and self certify your work.
The scheme provider is likely to want to see that you have experience of real installations before or after your training. It will also enable you to undertake and recognise the new 2013 expanded criteria of non notifiable work that you will be able to undertake both competently and safely.
It is also an entry course to becoming a qualified supervisor if you are an adult learner where a degree of knowledge and experience in domestic work is required prior to taking the Qualified Supervisors qualification.
Bronze Domestic Installer
Why Take This Domestic Installer Course ...
The skills learnt on this course will enable you to carry out all kinds of installations
in a domestic setting. Essentially you will be competent and safe to work on any
kind of domestic project, be that a house re-wire, extension or simple jobs such as
new sockets and light fittings. Under current building regulations anyone carrying
out such work must be able to prove they are competent and safe to do so.
What can you officially do with these skills and qualifications ...
Once you have completed this course you will have the skills, knowledge and qualifications to enable you to find employment or work on a self employed basis as a domestic electrical installer. In fact the majority of people who train
on this course go on to set up as self employed domestic electricians.

SilverWhy should you take this qualification rather than our Bronze package ...
• It’s the number one preferred qualification route for a Qualified Supervisor Status. • It’s a single qualification that will be relevant to you for life.
• It’s a much more comprehensive qualification.
• The units count towards the Full Electrical Diploma NVQ(commercial quals) • It’s a course designed for you to complete both in centre and at home or work. • As a result this course is longer and costs a little more, so the choice is yours.
Gold Domestic Electrician EAL 7695
Why take the this Course
If you are looking at becoming a domestic electrician then this is the most
comprehensive qualification available today. It is also important to note that the
qualification units count towards the Diploma in Electrical Installations should
you wish to start working in commercial environments in the future.

How does it work...
It’s a combination of the following learning methods:
• In centre training.
• Self study.
• Online learning and testing.
• Personal support.
• Exams and practical assessments.
What is a Qualified Supervisor...
Put simply, an electrically competent person who is responsible for the safety, technical standard and quality of electrical installation. The term Qualified Supervisor describes the person not the business and so can equally apply to a large organisation as it does to a Sole trader.
This course is a combination of training & teaching ‘in centre’ here with us, plus blended learning using the latest Online Learner Management System (LMS), self study packs and personal support, to enable us to give you the relevant segments that we have designed to ensure the maximum opportunity for success in this qualification.
