does anybody think this would be worthwhile or not please reply

I can't say whether or not it's worthwhile, however it seems to be focused on becoming a domestic electrician. If that's what you're planning on doing then great, however if you were looking to get into commercial/industrial then, in my opinion, the course is lacking.

Don't rely on my opinion only though, hopefully others will chip in!
