Electrical training is devolved to Scotland and as such we have been left to get on with it
Things are a lot better here, but you will struggle to find a mature apprenticeship as there are over 20 redundant mature apprentices in Galasgow / West of Scotland
SELECT have just finished their extension and alteration of their offices.
In the same building (Bush Estate, Edinburgh) we now have,
SELECT (ECA of Scotland)
SECTT (Training Trust)
SJIB (Scottish Joint Industry Board)
Electrical Saftey Council (Scottish office)
Amicus /Unite (Electricians Union)
You really have to do the SECTT route as it is the only realistic route to being a registered electriican in Scotland
I know, if I were to take an electrician on (unlikely as I am a 1 man band) I would call SJIB and see if the person was adequately qualified- they look up NI numbers.
