Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I do a short course in electrotechnology?
Electrical training - particularly short courses - is very worthwhile for career starters and students, as they give you extra training to help you stand out from the competition and land a job more easily. They're also more affordable and more accessible than longer training courses. Electrotechnology short courses are also great for established electricians to add extra skills to their roster, in turn helping to boost promotion chances and the potential to earn more money in the long run.
How long do electrical short courses take?
It varies, but most short courses can be completed within a few days. A typical short course in electrotechnology involves 1-5 days of in-person practical studies and activities at our designated training facilities to ensure a hands-on experience. You can complete an electrical qualification in just a few days with Major Training, acquiring high-demand electrotechnology skills in areas like instrumentation and control (which are on the National Skills Shortage List).
