AM2 Assessment
Technique Learning Solutions are now offering AM2 assessments at our approved training centre. The AM2 is the industry-standard end-point assessment for apprenticeships with qualifications such as C&G 2357 Level 3 or NVQ 3 (Diploma in Electrotechnical Technology). It is purely an assessment — there is no training element.
The AM2 is also increasingly used by those wishing to gain their JIB card as an electrician — whether holding older qualifications that predate the NVQ or qualified electricians from outside the UK looking to work in the industry.
It is today undeniably the industry-recognised trade test, designed to evidence that candidates have gained all relevant technical and safety-critical competencies during their training. It provides a single standard agreed upon by employers within the electrical industry, giving a reliable and trusted guarantee of safe, high-quality skills for the electrotechnical sector.
Recommended assessment and resit fees from 01 April 2026 are shown below. The fee you pay depends on the standard or version you are registered under — we confirm the correct price when you book. Ring us on 0800 112 3310 to book.

AM2 – Candidates undertaking the JIB mature candidate assessment and those following the Level 3 NVQ who are not an apprentice.
AM2S – Electrotechnical apprentices training against the apprenticeship standard.
AM2E – Experienced workers completing the experienced worker assessment. This can only be taken once you have gained the experienced worker qualification; proof is required before booking.
Apprentices coming to the end of their training for the JIB apprentice training scheme and the Installation of modern apprenticeships.
Achieve the AM2 certificate — the industry-recognised trade test for the electrotechnical sector.
Fulfil the end-point assessment requirement for Level 3 apprenticeships and the apprenticeship framework.
Meet the final step to gain a JIB Gold Card when combined with a Level 3 NVQ.

Apprentices must pass their AM2 in their final year to complete their apprenticeship.
If you are not following the apprenticeship standard, an AM2 certificate and Level 3 NVQ are required to gain a JIB Gold Card.
Working electricians with older qualifications not currently recognised by the JIB for grading will need to pass the AM2.

"I was impressed with the way the course was delivered. My tutor took time to explain all the salient points related to Electrical Engineering. Being my first time to attempt an electrical engineering course , I can confess that I have never been at easy with the way course was delivered. I really enjoyed the course. The tutors provided sufficient materials for the course, which made my life easier."
