Welcome to the forum.

All that to learn over 4 weeks? Good Grief.

Hello Smudger welcome to the forum. That certainly sounds a lot to learn in 4 weeks.

so would this qualify me to work straight after the course

 

[batty]

I would think you would need some practical experience also. I had a lad helping me a while back he needed the practical side to qualify as a spark. But I am not 100% sure on this.

Welcome smudgerGuiness Drink

as the others say it is certainly a lot to cram into 4 weeks..

as I recall my 2391 was a 10 week evening course 1 evening per week 2 hours + the exams theory & practical (May 2000)

so there 20hrs + worth accounted for

2382-20 tends to be done a either a 1day or 2day slot by most colleges..

unsure what the 2382-10 consists of?

On the whole the courses seem like a good ground-base for electrical work..

City and Guilds 2377-12 - Portable Appliance Testing wouldn't be needed or domestic

but its another string to your bow if you got any commercial contacts needing PAT testing doing..

say office equipment, Pubs & clubs etc..

4weeks will either keep you right on the ball straight through and you'll sail it..

or if you are struggling ..

may not give enough recap or revision time? :|

Best of luck with it m8
