[amateursparky]

Hi

I've just passed my 2330 lv3, could I do the AM2 now?

What are you expected to do within the required time?

Hello and welcome to the forum, I have moved this thread to the student area I believe you may get a better response there.

I am sorry I can not help you we had none of these qualifications when I was a lad.

Before doing AM2 you need to the candidate self-assessment form which you can download from the NET website http://www.netservices.org.uk/pdfs/Candidate%20Self_Assessment%20Checklist%202012.pdf

This needs to be signed by your employer and training provider to confirm you have experience of all the tasks required. More info is on the NET website.

If your local college does this course the good thing is it should be free as it should be government funded the only thing chargeable is your AM2 test (not sure how much though). If your college doesn't do this course as not all of them do then unfortunately either you or your company will have to foot the bill which can be

The self assessment check list is mandatory from April this year and has to be signed by the candidate and/or the employer or training provider.
