The coding part reminds me of my Level 3 Thermographer exams for thermal imaging where a pack of thermal images were provided and you had to write a summary on what was in them and faults.
Passed 2391-52 just before Xmas and have to say totally agree with pointers you guys have mentioned over the course of the 4 episodes. 9 on our course, only 3 got through. Definitely only get out what you put in to it in your own time.. #m2crew
Late to the game on this but...for anyone doing the C&G 2357 NVQ route, it may be worth knowing that you can claim 2391-50 from the EIC module once you have your level 3 knowledge units successfully completed, as well as portfolio and AM2. You'd then only need to do the 2391-51 in order to claim your 2391-52. It won't be for everyone but it's another route available, which can save some cash. I'm heading down this route myself soon, having just come off the back of my level 3 knowledge units on the 2357. Great video again chaps, nice work and much appreciated!
Hi mate, just going through these videos before I go ahead with my 2391. I currently hold 2357 AM2 and I’ve completed my portfolio. How do I go about claiming 2391-50?
@@callumcdh1 Sorry for the lateness on replying to this. Your best option is to contact your training centre and ask them to stake the 2391-52 claim on your behalf once you've done the 2391-51. This is also possible for 5357 course takers too. Any half-decent/JIB registered training centre should be familiar with the process and how to do it (or at least be able to find out easily enough)
You said you would put link in the description for the C&G Level 3 electrical book recommended by Craig in the description but I cant find it. As there as a number they do, could you put the full title he is refering to in the comments please Mark?
I failed my online exam section of 2391-52 and when I asked for feedback I was told “you haven’t reached the expected level”, granted it was me who failed it and being honest it was due to lack of studying, but the feedback was a bit vague, it did kick me in the balls tbh, but if you don’t get feedback you can’t grow and learn
@@A121podcast agreed especially the young learners who maybe don’t have the life experience we have, how do you know what to correct if you don’t know what the problem is, I’ve got a call with college tomorrow to arrange a resit so that’s a step in right direction
The context around the city and guilds book is not based on set regs it’s more a learning resource for how to do. The purpose of mentioning the book was for the prospect of if you are unsure about how to test, when you start going into the guidance note it gives you lots of options so it may just be worth a read for refreshing. The book was updated a couple of years ago to current practice, because of new qualification releases but I would need to ask Peter if a newer version is coming out. However; in this context it’s a great guide for how to do things properly and great for all exams under the apprenticeship standard or for a level 2 or 3 course.
There are now updated C&G books 1&2 available, although it's more a case of bringing them up to modern standards than aligning to AMD 2 as far as I know - worth checking out
Hi mate, less well known in the industry but essentially the same. Personally would do the 2391 as its better recognised in industry. But in terms of the qualification. Same process/standard
Just passed my 2391-52... However, I've NOT passed/done my NVQ or AM2 (all I have done is Level2, Level3 & 18th edition)... Am I allowed to sign off my own work?
This depends what you mean by sign off. In terms of via a CPS under self certification. The answer is No you can't. They won't admit you into membership without the NVQ/AM2 or equivalent. More widely you can sign off whatever you are competent to be doing is the short answer. How you or others decides what this is well that's open to debate. The acid test is most employers would not provide a job role for you to sign off your own or others work with the qualifications you listed. Hope that helped
Great series of videos, very informative. I like most do not like the classroom. This series really helped me with my expectations when taking my 2391-52! I’m over the moon to say I passed. Thanks guys 🫱🏻🫲🏼

Have you guys done one on the practical exam? Really helpful these videos are

Not a good experience Andy. Should be better feedback to learners imo.

some tutours are just lazy bastards , this is why you should find good training firms
Craig mentioned the City and Guilds textbooks. Are they likely to get an amendment 2 update in the not too distant?
I will ask him Jim
i doubt it , they never seem to bother they dont actually quote regs , they have not bothered for the last editions

Dropped my question a little late but is the Eal level 3 course test and inspection part the same as the 2391?
Hi mate, less well known in the industry but essentially the same. Personally would do the 2391 as its better recognised in industry. But in terms of the qualification. Same process/standard
the 2391 is the one people know , its like buying a dyson and sombodying offering you a shark ?? who
@Jamie blatant & The Information Torpedo As long as the qualifications are equal, its all good 🙌
Just passed my 2391-52... However, I've NOT passed/done my NVQ or AM2 (all I have done is Level2, Level3 & 18th edition)... Am I allowed to sign off my own work?
Can also add I do NOT belong to a competent person scheme (NICEIC or NAPIT)...
