This programme is aimed at learners who have completed the Level 2 Electrical Installation programme and wish to further develop their knowledge and practical skills, with a view to progressing to apprenticeships and employment.

Please note the main qualification is on the route to becoming, but does not make the holder, a qualified electrician.  Further study/assessment is required.

Entry requirements 

Prospective learners are required to have a City & Guilds Level 2 Technical Certificate in Electrical Installation (or equivalent).

Alternative entry qualifications will be considered on an individual basis.

Course content 

The Level 3 Electrical Installation programme consists of a City & Guilds Level 3 Advanced Technical Diploma in Electrical Installation and a mandatory tutorial session.  Learners without a GCSE Grade 4 (or equivalent) in English and/or Maths will be required to complete a suitable qualification in these areas alongside their installation course.

The City & Guilds Level 3 Advanced Technical Diploma builds upon the topics covered in the Level 2 Technical Certificate and has been designed to further develop learners' knowledge, skills and behaviours to enable them to progress into apprenticeships, employment and further study within the building sector.

Learners will complete units covering:

  • work activity planning and supervision
  • further electrical science
  • system design
  • inspection  & testing
  • fault diagnosis & rectification
  • installation requirements

The mandatory tutorial session will allow learners to interact with their assigned tutor for progress and development, as well as engage with the Hartlepool College of Further Education tutorial programme.
