SouthernBrad Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The best way in all honesty is to learn on the tools,a crash course really isn't the way to go in my opinion a lot of it is learnt over real on site scenarios.Do you know anyone or firms locally that may have you on for a bit of labour on some jobs etc?

rugbyboy96 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 hi there thanks for the reply that is an option i do know a few companies that i am going to ask as there seems to be no courses available Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJames Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Courses are not the best way to learn how to install hard wired IMHO. You cant teach lifting the right floorboard or drilling angles, or hiding cables, ect ect in a classroom. If I wanted to learn this industry I would approach all the local co's and see if they want an apprentice. You are willing to pay for training courses so I guess you wouldnt mind getting paid to learn even if it was a low wage. If you already have experience of wireless and CCTV you already have something to offer a potential employer. Depending how fast you pick it up you could be a good engineer in six months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlarmScot Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I think our company gets lads who come to us for this. I had a guy who was out of work and wanted to see if he wanted to do this type of work as he had been a sparky before. I think he just wanted see how we install alarms and etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
