Level 2 & 3 Diploma Package

The Complete Electrical Installation Diploma — Level 2 and Level 3 Combined

The Level 2 & 3 Diploma Package combines both City & Guilds 2365 electrical installation qualifications into a single enrolment. You get the Level 2 Diploma (2365-02), the Level 3 Diploma (2365-03), and a 2-day Wiring Regulations classroom course — everything you need to build a solid foundation for your electrician career, with the convenience of one enrolment and one payment plan.

Who Is This Package For?

• Career changers — No prior electrical experience required. This is the most popular route for adults retraining as electricians. Many of our learners come from completely different industries and successfully qualify.

• Those committed to the full pathway — If you already know you want to progress through Level 2 and Level 3, enrolling on the combined package means no gap between qualifications. You move straight from Level 2 into Level 3 while the knowledge is fresh.

• Industry workers without formal qualifications — If you're already working in electrical or construction but lack recognised credentials, this package takes you from entry-level through to advanced theory in one continuous programme.

• Employers upskilling their workforce — We work with companies across the UK who book this package for their employees. In-centre practical days can be scheduled flexibly around your business needs, on weekdays or weekends.

What's Included

The package includes three qualifications:

• City & Guilds 2365-02 Level 2 Diploma in Electrical Installations — The UK's most recognised entry-level electrical qualification. Covers electrical science fundamentals, health and safety, wiring systems, cable installation, and the BS 7671 Wiring Regulations.

• City & Guilds 2365-03 Level 3 Diploma in Electrical Installations — Advanced electrical theory including three-phase systems, fault diagnosis and rectification, inspection and testing procedures, and electrical systems design.

• 2-day Wiring Regulations classroom course — An intensive classroom session at our Nottingham training centre covering the requirements of BS 7671, preparing you for the electrical industry's most essential regulation.

How the Course Works

This is a hybrid course combining flexible online theory with hands-on practical training at our Nottingham centre. Study the theory units at your own pace through our online learning platform — available 24/7 on desktop, or via our mobile app for iOS and Android, with no live sessions to attend. When you're ready, book your in-centre practical days at times that suit you.

In-Centre Training & Assessments

You'll need approximately 13 to 16 days at our training centre across both levels, depending on your existing practical skills. Level 2 sessions cover hands-on wiring, testing, and fault finding. Level 3 builds on this with fault diagnosis and rectification, inspection and testing procedures, and electrical systems design.

We offer unlimited training days — attend as many sessions as you need until you feel fully confident, at no additional cost. In-centre days are available on both weekdays and weekends, giving you complete flexibility to fit training around work or other commitments.

Exams are normally taken at the centre. If you prefer, these can also be sat remotely with online invigilation for a small additional fee.

Your Career Pathway After the Package

After completing both diplomas, the remaining steps to your JIB Gold Card are:

• 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (2382) — The industry-standard exam on BS 7671

• Inspection & Testing (2391) — Certify and sign off electrical installations

• NVQ Level 3 (2357) — Workplace-based assessment of your practical competence

• AM2 Assessment — The final practical test for your Gold Card

Qualified electricians in the UK earn £35,000–£50,000+ per year, making the training investment one of the fastest-returning career decisions available.

JIB ECS Card Support

As a recognised JIB training provider, we help you apply for your JIB Trainee Electrician ECS Card from the point of enrolment — essential for working on construction sites and demonstrating your credentials to employers.

ELCAS Funding

This package is eligible for ELCAS (Enhanced Learning Credits) funding for serving and former Armed Forces personnel. Total Skills is an approved ELCAS provider (Provider Number: 12999), offering up to 80% financial support.

Flexible Payment Options

We offer interest-free payment plans with no credit checks required. Pay a deposit to secure your place, then spread the remaining cost over up to 18 monthly instalments. Pay in full and save £300 — bringing the total to £4,650.

The package awards two separate City & Guilds certificates: the 2365-02 (Level 2) and the 2365-03 (Level 3). Together they carry over 100 credits on the RQF and cover everything from electrical fundamentals through to advanced three-phase systems and installation design. A 2-day Wiring Regulations classroom session is also included.
