Pricing & Examination

From the 1st of September, learners will need to complete an online multiple-choice exam, the same as for the current qualifications. However, with the new course, there will be no practical assessment. Instead, this will be replaced by an assignment comprised of short-answer and scenario-based questions, designed to test the practical requirements.

You will also be able to take your Code of Practice for Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Installation (IET Standards) – ISBN 978-1839531804 book into the exam for reference.

You can order a book via our team, provided it is two weeks prior to your test date.
