I've reached that stage in my life where I fancy a change of direction and am looking to re-train as an Electrician. I came across a distance-learning version of the BTEC Level 3 for £445 which I thought was a bargain for a level 3 qualification. It also doesn't require me to have any previous electrical experience! With C&G,you can only get a Level 2 certificate without experience. Being an old cynic, I'm thinking there must be a catch? Can anyone tell me whether this particular BTEC qualification is recognised by the industry or not? From what I've seen so far, only C&G qualifications are recognised by the Electrical industry. Am I wrong?
