We have decided to break the whole programme up into 5 separate courses for two reasons. Firstly, some plumbers might have slightly more electrical knowledge than others, and therefore might wish to skip course 1 – The Basic Fundamentals of Electricity and move ahead to course 2. Secondly, we decided to split the programme up into 5 courses to make the price more affordable than purchasing the entire course in one go. You can however purchase the entire course here if you wish to do so.
