Please note that this qualification has not yet been released by
City and Guilds and is subject to changes. The examinations are
likely to be available from City and Guilds in June/July 2008.
If you gain the current 2391 inspection and testing
qualification now you do NOT have to upgrade to the 2392
qualifiaction later (unlike the compulsory upgrade to the 2382
17th Edition wiring regulations). So you may undertake the 2391
course immediately as this will always be a recognised
qualification in the electrical installation industry. |
