City and Guilds 2391-52, Initial and Periodic Inspection and Testing of Electrical Installations reviews

4.8 (352 reviews)
AI summary of reviews

Attendees particularly value the tutors’ extensive electrical knowledge, clear explanations and approachable support. They find the sessions engaging, with humour, real-life examples and patient answers that make theory and practical testing easier to understand. The course builds confidence and helps learners apply standards and coding principles at work, although several attendees find the intensive schedule leaves limited time for practical training and may require a separate assessment visit.

John was a fantastic tutor and I have no complaints about him whatsoever ever and hope to see him again. However The Course is not long enough! This course should be at least 3-4 weeks to be able to actually learn and absorb the information. This shouldn’t be called a course as you’re not learning anything, only how to pass an exam. Too much information to take onboard in such a short time. This is more about making money than it is about educating electricians to be able to verify the safety of an electrical installation. This is at best a refresher course. The documents that you can sign after doing just a four day course, which could potentially cause harm or at worst case death. This is absolutely criminal. A wrongly filled in document or wrongly identified installation could land you prison if filled out in-correctly. How can you say that in four days you can competently teach all this information to a student. If anything this has put me off testing in my career as I don’t get paid enough to have this sort of responsibility on my head with such little training. I am an experienced Electrician of 11 years.

Fantastic experience here. John Burton was extremely knowledgeable and supported me through every step of the course and made me feel at ease. I would only use Technique Learning Solutions for all my future electrical training and 100% recommend to everyone! Bradley Pyewell

The course content and delivery were excellent. Mr. Allan Morrison has done a great job as the tutor. Overall I had a really good experience attending the course at the Stirling centre.

Firstly I would like to congratulate you on your choice of lecturer/ assessor. Andy was supportive and immensely knowledgeable. He did not discriminate between the confident electricians or beginners to testing. He explained things clearly and visually and thrived on answering students questions. If this course achieves a high pass percentage it will largely down to Andy's ability to teach. The venue had everything you needed including free coffee ( always a bonus ). All round communication from start to finish was excellent. The only thing I would change would be build in the testing assessment into the week to avoid having to come back again.

Course information on website was a little missleading. As it didn't suggest that I would have to attend an extra day to complete the practical assessment.

Only issue I occurred was the On Site Guides provided (should have my own literature, I know) where they had been hole punched and bind it had chopped off the cable information on the tables.
