This course will help you develop those skills, setting you up for a successful – and profitable – career in the building services or construction industry.

You will be studying a range of skills that enhance your understanding of inspection and testing techniques, as well as fault finding concepts, preparing you for the numerous progression opportunities in the building services sector.
Employer involvement is essential to maximise the value of your experience, therefore you will expected to undertake relevant work experience during this qualification.
Upon completion, you can progress to higher education, an apprenticeship or into employment. There will be plenty of career opportunities for you, working as an electrician in domestic, commercial, or industrial fields. You could have ambitions to become a site supervisor, an electrical engineer, or a service manager, depending on where your interests lie.
“I chose to study at South Devon College as I've always had an interest in trades. It's a great place to learn about the industry before entering the workplace. The staff are really helpful and I prefer the College environment to school as you're treated more like an adult. It’s a really fun and exciting course."Charlie Capewell
