Portable Appliances Testing Course

[derekgough]

My name is Derek and want to get a certification of PAT testing. There are two option for taking a class such as online training or physical training. As you know, for physical training it is necessary to reach on time at the institute and in case get late due to any reason then you have missed. So I preferred to get an online classes as per my convenience. However, there are lots of different providers but which one is better I don't know. I shared a list, please suggest the best option.

I did a short course on Portable Appliance Testing at Thurso College in the 1990s, I don't know if they still do these. I later sat (and passed) a written exam, I think that it may have been City and Guilds. I think a "hands on" course would be best, where the student can use a real PAT testing machine an carry out visual inspections of real equipment.
