EAL and Electrotechnical Certificate Qualification: How to Find an Employer

If you are interested in training to be an electrician, finding an employer to apprentice with can be a challenging proposition. You will need to find one who is willing to provide you with training so you can complete your electrical qualifications.

To get someone willing to take you on as an apprentice, you are going to need to show them that you are dependable, will show up for work on time, and are motivated to go through all the steps involved in completing the steps involved in getting your electrical qualifications.

You will want to prepare a CV so that the prospective employer can get to know something about you and your present qualifications. The next step is to start making a list of companies which have hired apprentices in the past; they are likely to have current openings. If you know someone who is working as an electrician, ask them which company they apprenticed with. EAL may be able to give you some suggestions and there are many resources on the Internet you can access.

Send your CV to the prospective employers on your list with a cover letter telling them that you will be calling to follow up in a few days. Make a note of the date and be sure to do this. It will indicate to the employer that you are enthusiastic and can be counted on to do what you say you will do.

Once you have found an employer willing to take you on as an apprentice, be sure to contact EAL straight away. You want to be sure that you can get a spot in an EAL course to complete your electrical qualifications.
