Hello everyone,

I am a migrant from Africa, Nigeria to be precise, I'm a security system engineer with Verse knowledge of Access control systems, surveillance system, intruder alarm system, fire detection system etc... I have not been able to practise on this field since I migrated to the UK . I am looking for any opportunity to build on my experience here in the UK, Any advise or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

 

I'm in Avon Bristol and I have got the right to work in the UK. 

 

Best Regards

Monsur

 

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

As above check who is local to you and contact them directly

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

Have you done any courses yet that will help you 

 

Perhaps tavcom still do them look online 

 Many thanks al-yeti, I would look into that option as well. though on the job learning is the best. Thanks for your suggestion, it worth exploring.

Hey mate, are u suggesting that I should sig up for NSI membership?

Please advice if signing up for ECS (electrotechnical certification Scheme) or NSI membership would help my situation above 

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.
