Entry requirements
Why choose this course?
The AM2E Assessment is intended for candidates who were registered on the Experienced Worker Qualification (EWQ) prior to September 2023. It is designed to assess the practical skills, knowledge, and competence required to meet the industry standard expected of a qualified electrician.
The AM2E can only be undertaken once the Experienced Worker Qualification has been successfully completed. Candidates will be required to provide evidence of their qualification before an assessment booking can be confirmed.
Successful completion of both the Experienced Worker Qualification and the AM2E Assessment demonstrates that the candidate has achieved the level of occupational competence required by the electrotechnical industry and can apply for recognition as a qualified electrician.
Further information
- These are assessments.
The AM2E Assessment is completed over three consecutive days and is divided into a number of assessment sections, each designed to test the knowledge, skills, and competence required of a qualified electrician.
During several of the practical assessment activities, candidates will be observed by an assessor while carrying out the tasks. Although this can feel daunting, it is a normal part of the assessment process and provides the assessor with the opportunity to evaluate safe working practices, technical ability, and overall competence. To help build confidence, candidates may find it beneficial to practise completing tasks while being observed by a colleague, supervisor, or mentor prior to attending the assessment. This can help candidates become more comfortable working under observation and better prepare them for the AM2 environment.
Candidates may wish to book onto the AM2E Refresher course before undertaking their assessment; however, attendance is entirely optional. The course is designed to provide a theory-based overview of the AM2 assessment process, helping candidates to understand the assessment requirements, expectations, and marking criteria, while building confidence ahead of their assessment.
