Course Duration: Various (Online Portfolio Only)


Designed specifically for mature candidates who have been working in the electrotechnical industry for a number of years but have so far been unable to be formally recognised at NVQ level 3. The NVQ 2346-03 will allow candidates to demonstrate their technical knowledge, performance and competence to the industry standard level 3. 

This will enable experienced workers the opportunity to get their skills properly accredited for an Installation Electrician ‘Gold Card’ under the Electrotechnical Certification Scheme (ECS). To complete this qualification, you will also need your 18th Edition and Initial Verification Inspection and Testing. (This is not included in the price because it is bespoke for every learner)

What Careers Can This Lead To?

You will need to:

  • Complete the C&G 2346 NVQ Portfolio
  • Complete an AM2E Assessment.
  • Have an up-to-date Wiring Regulations qualification
  • Have an Inspection and Testing Qualification such as the C&G 2391-52

Upon successful completion of the above you will be eligible to apply for a JIB Gold Card. 

Please Note: This qualification is not suitable for new entrants to the electrotechnical industry, or for apprentices, or for those who have completed an electrotechnical technical qualification with less than five years of relevant experience as an electrician. 

To gain the City & Guilds NVQ 2346-03 Level 3 you will need to prove your competence whilst working as an electrician. This means being able to prove your practical skills AND underpinning knowledge, to a satisfactory standard. Proof of underpinning knowledge is usually by production of a technical certificate and professional discussion. For a in depth view of the skill scan it is available to view here.

You will need to gather evidence from the workplace, which will be assessed and verified. The evidence should indicate that you are working to the standards expected of an electrician over a variety of activities and have an understanding of the appropriate electrical theory.
  • The assessment process involves working with your assessor to produce a portfolio of evidence. This will be assessed and verified prior to being submitted to City and Guilds for approval. Your assessor will provide you with ongoing support and feedback until you successfully complete your NVQ.
  • Once you have completed the qualification process you will then take your AM2E practical assessment. This is similar to the AM2 assessment taken at the end of an electrotechnical apprenticeship or the previous NVQ 2356-99, but includes an extra section involving installation of conduit.
  • Once you have completed the qualification and successfully passed the AM2E, you have completed the Experienced Worker Assessment.
  • Candidates can complete the NVQ at their own pace, as quickly as 2 months to a maximum of 18 months.

Pre-requisites

The entry requirements are as:

  • Working in electrotechnical industry for over 5 years
  • As of the 21/09/2023 candidates must also hold a Level 2 Diploma as a minimum in order to register for this NVQ. This means that holders of a Level 2 OR Level 3 Diploma / Technical Certificate are eligible.
  • Have an up-to-date Wiring Regulations qualification (We can offer this as an add-on)
  • Have an Inspection and Testing Qualification such as the C&G 2391-52 (We can offer this as an add-on)
