With a City & Guilds Experienced Worker qualification, you have shown that you meet the Occupational Standards within the Electrotechnical industry. That can be a great launchpad for a range of careers, from inspection to installation.

It can also help you move into a role as an electrical engineer, as well as broadening your prospects with your current employer.

Entry criteria
This qualification is for learners who are experienced workers, with at least five years’ experience working in the electrotechnical industry as a practising electrician. It is not suitable for new entrants into the electrotechnical industry. Learners must hold a relevant Level 2 Technical qualification within Electrotechnical. Learners that cannot demonstrate sufficient industry experience should undertake the 2357 or 5357 (apprentices only) qualifications.

This qualification is approved for learners aged 18 or above, however it is expected due to the five-year industry experience requirements learners will be significantly older.
