Validate your expertise and formalise your career.

This specialised route is designed exclusively for practicing electricians with a minimum of 5 years’ industry experience. If you currently demonstrate high-level technical knowledge and competence but lack the formal credentials, this qualification bridges that gap.

We align our assessment directly with the Level 3 Electrotechnical apprenticeship standards. This ensures your experience meets modern industry requirements, providing a direct pathway to becoming a fully qualified Domestic Electrician Experienced Worker.

  • Entry Requirement: 5+ years of demonstrable industry experience.

  • Outcome: NVQ Level 3 Qualification.

  • Progression: Provides the foundation for the ECS Installation Electrician Gold Card.

Phase 1: The Initial Skills Scan

Before you enrol, you must prove your eligibility through a mandatory skills scan.

  • The Process: You complete two comprehensive documents detailing your work history and prior technical experience.

  • The Review: Our assessors conduct a thorough audit of your background to identify any knowledge gaps.

  • The Interview: An assessor will call you for a professional discussion to confirm your suitability for the Level 3 standard.

  • Cost: £60 +VAT.

Phase 2: Enrolment & Completion

Once approved, you move into the full qualification phase.

  • Induction Day: You will attend our centre to complete your paperwork, receive your induction, and collect your online learning credentials.

  • Theory Exams: You will return to the centre to sit seven online examinations covering core electrotechnical theory.

  • Portfolio Building: After passing your exams, you will work directly with your assessor, Craig, to build a portfolio of evidence. This showcases your practical competence on real-world projects.

  • Final Assessment: Your journey concludes with an End Point Practical Assessment.

Achieving Your ECS Gold Card

While you do not need an AM2 assessment to earn your NVQ Level 3, you do need it to apply for an ECS Gold Card. We offer the AM2 as an optional extra; simply speak to our team during your induction if you wish to add this to your training package.

Can’t thank the team enough at HTAA for the 15 days I’d spent in centre doing my gas course, big thanks to Jake , Luke and Howard for their delivery of the classes and the knowledge they have to pass on was amazing! can’t recommend here enough. From the initial sign up with the office to completing the 15 days in centre it was smooth sailing and you felt included and part of a team. Look forward to re attending to do my in centre bits of the portfolio☺️ big thanks to John too for running such a welcoming and great place, all the staff always have a smile and up for a laugh and that’s a credit to himself and them all!

Another successful week with HTAA, this time completing my F Gas Qualification. Tom did a great job of working through the theory, facts and figures and we had plenty of time in the bays getting hands on to practice with the equipment. It was a 10 man group of big personalities but Tom kept us all in check and on exam day I certainly got the impression we were all feeling well prepared and positive. Nice to meet the boss man John who popped in to say hello and a particular thanks to the girls in the office who were keeping things ship shape!! Thanks and see you soon for the F Gas update

Just completed the F gas course and training with Tom. He is a master of his craft and great practical teacher. He took tricky concepts and broke them down so they were easy to understand, and gave real world scenarios that you could come across. I highly recommend this “cool” course.

I’m about three-quarters of the way through my new entrant domestic gas MLP course, and feel like I’ve come miles—and that’s thanks to the incredible people here! Firstly, Amber has been a standout from day one! - so personable, so welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable you feel like you belong instantly. She’s always at the end of the phone, ready to help with anything, and she somehow makes even exam day feel relaxed. Amber’s a real gem—if I were the manager, she’d be getting top marks all day long for sure! And then there’s Jake. The man is a phenomenal trainer. He’s clearly sharp as a knife, but what blows me away is how he makes everything accessible for someone who started from scratch, like me. He breaks down even the trickiest concepts so simply that you walk away thinking, “I’ve got this.” I mean, I went from not knowing one end of a spanner to confidently gas rating lol - If you’re an absolute newbie, like me, this new entrant gas course at Hampshire Training Centre is an absolute must. I’d recommend it in a heartbeat! What’s also incredible is that the Centre is one of the only places I found, after scouring the country, that actually lets you complete your portfolio work with them as part of the course. That’s huge! It means I’m not just learning—I’m building my portfolio right there. So, if you’re starting from scratch and wondering where to go, look no further. Between Amber’s support, Jake’s expert training, Johns vision and the portfolio setup, this is where you want to be. I didn’t get as much time with the other ladies in the office or every trainer, but just from being around them, it’s clear how approachable everyone is. The atmosphere here ifantastic across the board. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things—everyone’s made this journey feel welcoming and positive. Thanks guys!
