Becoming a qualified electrician : Myth vs reality
The electrical industry is leading the way in low carbon revolution. The design and installation of smart homes and buildings, and the growth in solar panels and electric vehicles means there are exciting career options for those who want to be part of the green agenda. However the electrical training landscape is changing and it’s important to be fully aware of the career options for both school/college leavers and career changers.
This year a new apprenticeship option – Domestic Electrician – will launch, joining the existing Installation Electrician apprenticeship.
People are being easily misled into courses that do not lead to qualified status, or are recognised by employers. In this webinar The Electrotechnical Skills Partnership (TESP) will outline the myths and misconceptions about training to be an electrician, the two apprentice routes and the correct ways to becoming fully qualified. There will be ample time for any Q&A at the end of the session.
Attendance is free for members of the CDI.

There will be an opportunity to discuss all of this, alongside topics of career progression pathways, the impact of qualifications, transferable skills development and how we shape our sector for years to come.
Attendance is free for members of the CDI.

International Day of Women and Girls in Science
Full and equal access and participation for women and girls in science
Science and gender equality are both vital for the achievement of the internationally agreed development goals, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Yet women and girls continue to be excluded from participating fully in science.
In order to achieve full and equal access to and participation in science for women and girls, and further achieve gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, the United Nations General Assembly declared 11 February as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science in 2015.
