Certified Electrician

​What Is a Qualified Electrician?

A qualified electrician is an individual who has attained a specific level of skills, knowledge, and behaviours that are equivalent to an industry apprenticeship standard. This can be substantiated through industry-recognised qualifications.

Once an electrician becomes qualified, many choose to obtain an ECS Gold Card. This card serves as a reliable way to demonstrate that an individual meets the criteria for being qualified to industry apprenticeship standards or their equivalent.

The primary pathway to becoming a qualified electrician is through an industry-standard apprenticeship.
