What Our Students Say
Hear directly from learners who used Learn Trade Skills to progress their electrical training route.
*****Mark R.
MR5.0 Rating18th Edition Wiring Regulations (C&G 2382-26) — Online
Passed first time. The online material covered everything I needed - studied evenings for six weeks, used the mocks, then booked the exam when I was ready.
*****Salman T.
ST5.0 Rating18th Edition Wiring Regulations (C&G 2382-26) — Online
Did this for NICEIC renewal. Couldn’t spare 3 days off work for the classroom version - the online portal let me chip through it on commutes. Sat the remotely invigilated exam online two weeks later. Same certificate.
*****Michael R.

Left the office, joined the trade. Seven weeks in Cheshunt, first paid job the following Monday.

to know, upfront.
What is included in the £99 fee?
The £99 fee covers the complete online 18th Edition (City & Guilds 2382-26) learning route for 12 months from access activation, including the 24/7 AI tutor, HD video lessons, knowledge checks and smart mock practice. City & Guilds course registration and the official remotely invigilated examination are an additional £180; add them at checkout or purchase them later when you are ready.
Do I need to attend the training centre?
No. The 18th Edition online course has no practical centre sessions. Study is fully online and the optional City & Guilds 2382-26 examination is remotely invigilated, so no centre attendance is required.
How long do I have to complete the online course?
You have 12 months of portal access from enrolment. After successful payment, we create your course access automatically and email a secure sign-in setup link. Most candidates complete the theory study in 4-8 weeks of part-time evening/weekend revision.
Do I get a copy of the BS 7671 book?
No - you must own the latest BS 7671 book (currently BS 7671:2018+A4:2026) and keep it with you while completing the course, practising the final mock and sitting the open-book remote examination. The book is not included in the course price, so purchase your copy separately before you begin.
How is the online 18th Edition different from the classroom course?
Both award the same City & Guilds 2382-26 certificate on passing the same exam. The classroom version (£489, 3 days at Cheshunt) includes live tutor walkthroughs, regulation-navigation drills, group Q&A, and the exam on the final day. The full online version provides 12 months of self-paced materials, Orange Book navigation drills and a 60-question, 120-minute mock exam simulator, with automatic enrolment after successful payment for £99; City & Guilds registration and the remotely invigilated examination are an additional £180, available at checkout or later. Existing 18th Edition holders who only need Amendment 4 can choose the focused £49 refresher instead.
Is the online 18th Edition recognised by NICEIC and NAPIT?
Yes - the qualification awarded is the same City & Guilds 2382-26 regardless of how you study. NICEIC, NAPIT, ELECSA, and STROMA approved-contractor schemes accept the C&G 2382-26 certificate; they do not distinguish between online and classroom routes. The certificate itself does not mention 'online' or 'classroom'.
