Cable Jointing and Cable Laying Training Services


We are a Non Registered Training Organisation, who focus on delivering specific skill sets for Low and High Voltage Cable Jointing. This enables us to work together with our clients to ensure a suitable program that works for the business. 

Ongoing support for the Trainees is available if required and we can organise an experienced Cable Jointer to work alongside the Trainees until confidence and competence is gained. 


Example: If you are installing Heat Shrink Product type Cable Joints and Terminations. 

"We will focus training on the installation type installed"

If its Cold Shrink or Paper Lead Jointing?

That is what we will focus on....


Businesses often only require information or training to install a particular type of Cable Joint, Termination or product. 

Why have staff undertake a complete Qualification or Unit of Competency that may possibly include an excess of information that isn't  relevant to the project. When you can focus on the relevant type of Joint for your project.


We understand the Cable Jointing and Laying process better than anyone and focus on fit for purpose delivery of training for our clients. We taylor design and customise courses to suit Customers requirements. 


All courses will include theory and practical tasks followed by an assessment. 

Certificate of Completion will be issue at the end of successful Training and assessment.


We offer a familiarisation course for new comers to the Power Cable Laying Industry as well as a Refresher Course for experienced Cable Layers and Jointers.


You select the topics you would like to have covered for your team and we will work together on creating a course specific to your work stream.
