T-Level in Building Services Engineering for Construction (Electrical Installation)

Upon successful completion of the T Level Building Services Engineering – Electrical Installation programme, you will be well-equipped for a variety of career paths, including:

• Electrician: Pursue a career as a certified electrician, working in various settings such as residential, commercial, or industrial.
• Building Services Engineer: Specialise in electrical systems within the broader field of building services engineering.
• Sustainability Consultant: Advice on energy-efficient electrical solutions and green technologies.
• Electrical Inspector: Ensure compliance with electrical codes and regulations in construction projects.
• Further Education: Choose to pursue higher education or specialised training in electrical engineering or related fields.

This T Level is designed for those who want to develop an understanding of Electrotechnical Engineering within the Building Services industry sector. You will gain comprehensive knowledge and practical skills essential for a successful career in electrical installation within building services engineering. This two-year course focuses on electrical systems, wiring, and their integration into modern building infrastructure. T Levels aim to provide the knowledge and experience needed to open the door to highly skilled employment, higher level study or a Higher Apprenticeship. The course is delivered through workshop-based practical sessions, class-based theoretical delivery and work experience placements in your second year You’ll have access to guest speakers and industry experts, site visits, relevant field trips and industry placements on live sites out in the world of work. There is also an employer-set project, which you will complete as part of a team. If you are not quite ready for a T level, then a foundation programme could give you the chance to improve your maths and English (and any other subjects that you need to improve) to move on to a T level the following year.
