Start your journey towards becoming a fully qualified Electrical and Electronic Engineer with the Level 3 Triple Diploma in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Co-created with industry this qualification is aimed at learners preparing for roles in electrical and electronic engineering, for example power engineering technicians, to allow you to develop the exact skills needed. There is a strong focus on experimental and practical techniques so you learn to apply your knowledge to real industry scenarios. You will also develop your analytical and problem-solving abilities. This is a challenging and exciting course, featuring work experience and delivered by enthusiastic expert tutors all keen to support you towards success. This qualification is the equivalent of 3 A levels. If you do not achieve a grade 3 in GCSE Maths or English you will have to work towards re-sitting these subjects as part of your main study programme.
