So I am after a bit of advice from anyone that has previously had, or has an ECS Card. I was told to sit the ESC H&S Exam, passed it. I am currently doing a Level 2 C&G 2365 Course, but I am looking to get a card so that I can apply for roles as a Mate or Trainee. I am not sure what card to apply for? Any help would be great.
I’m pretty sure they don’t do a Mate card. I believe your options are Labourer, which would not allow you to do anything electrical on site. Then there's Apprentice or Trainee. I think, unless you are apprenticed to a JIB registered company, you will have to apply for trainee.
The Mate card is an Electrical Labourer. I have tried the Electrical Trainee - Stage 2. It says: The qualifications you have supplied do not support your request for the grade of Trainee Electrician (Stage 2). 0" class="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">You may be missing: via Employers Sponsorship with Level 2 Knowledge (All of) : Employer’s sponsorship for Training Employment I have this (click to add it) and Level 2 Technical Knowledge Click here to Hide examples EAL Certificate in Electrotechnical Technology Level 2 I have this (click to add it) C&G 2351 Units 1,2,3,4 I have this (click to add it) Units ELTK 01 to 05 of the Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Installing Electrotechnical systems and equipment (buildings, structures and the environment) I have this (click to add it) C&G Level 2 Certificate in Electrotechnical Tech.

But the main question is how do you get Employer’s sponsorship for Training Employment It seems rather odd that in order to get the experience you need a card, but they are putting so many roadblocks in place to stop you, from doing it.
