To help our centres and their learners prepare for the introduction of the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, we held a free webinar in partnership with the Electrical Contractors' Association earlier this week, which proved to be extremely popular.

Don't worry if you missed it, a recorded version is now available to view online.

The electrical JIB have issued an important statement about the EAL Level 3 Electrotechnical Qualification 601/7345/2 when used outside the 'electrical trailblazer' apprenticeship.

Apprentices from across the UK working in the engineering sector are being encouraged to share their views on apprenticeships by contributing to the Industry Apprentice Council's (IAC) 2018 survey.

We're delighted that another EAL qualification has been added to the new tariff table recently published by UCAS:

• EAL Level 3 Technical Extended Diploma in Engineering Technology (603/0564/2)

We now have a total of nine approved engineering, electrical and plumbing qualifications with UCAS points.
