MrHappy Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I don't think we have any active member's in your area, Look on the NSI / SSAIB web site for co's in your area & pop them an email then follow up with telephone call a week later ? Good luck Mr Veritas God Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/46166-work-experience/#findComment-520588 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterJames Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 There is a shortage of good engineers in the UK you should have no trouble finding something. As above the NSI and SSAIB websites are a good place to start Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/46166-work-experience/#findComment-520591 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsur Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 Please advice if signing up for ECS (electrotechnical certification Scheme) or NSI membership would help my situation above Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/46166-work-experience/#findComment-520659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 ECS is required for site work and most contracting. It's not training tho NSI/SSAIB are company approval, you can't have this as an individual. Tavcom courses for training but people are suggesting you get your CV into local companies.
