Artisan & Trade Test Course Description

Our Electrical Trade Test Prepares the learner for the National Trade Test Examination at Department of Higher Education and Training, INDLELA. This qualification is also known as “Red Seal” qualification.

Apart from being the preparation course for the official Trade Test Qualification this course will enrich the knowledge and skill base of the learner with respect to residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations.

This course is distinguished from other course as it has a theoretical and practical component. This means that the learner will receive a lecture conducted by an expert facilitator after which the learning experience is enhanced by a practical session where the lecturer has the opportunity to practice wiring the circuits that was covered during the theoretical lecture.

A facilitator is always at hand to continuously address any questions and to assist the learner where necessary.
