Here is a first-hand story from Arda Duman, one of our outstanding students who completed the Gold Card Package Course—a program designed to fast-track your journey to becoming a qualified Sparky.
The global energy transition is accelerating at an unprecedented rate, with a record-breaking £1.66 trillion invested in 2024. This surge in funding is reshaping the landscape of electric transport, renewable energy, and power infrastructure. However, as the demand for cleaner energy grows, so does the need for a skilled workforce capable of implementing and maintaining these advanced technologies.
A recent BloombergNEF report highlights that while mature sectors like electric transport and renewable energy are thriving, emerging technologies such as hydrogen and carbon capture are struggling to attract investment. To bridge this gap, governments and businesses must prioritize workforce development, ensuring that training programs evolve in tandem with industry advancements. Without a well-trained labor force, the clean energy transition may face significant bottlenecks, hindering the ability to meet ambitious net-zero targets.
The City & Guilds 2391-52 Level 3 Award in Initial and Periodic Inspection and Testing of Electrical Installations is one of the most essential qualifications for electricians looking to advance in their careers.
Whether you’re a qualified electrician seeking to enhance your skills, improve your earning potential, or comply with UK regulations, the inspection and testing course is a must-have. In this guide, I will walk you through why this qualification matters, how to prepare for it, what to expect in the exam, and how to apply your knowledge in real-world electrical inspection and testing.
