Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need electrical qualifications to take smart home training?

No formal electrical qualifications are required. Our Beginner tier is designed for complete newcomers. However, electricians and trades professionals will find their existing skills give them a significant advantage, particularly in the Advanced and Pro tiers.

How do my electrical skills transfer to smart home installation?

Electricians already understand wiring, cable management, safe working practices, consumer units, and client-facing work. Smart home installation builds on these foundations by adding smart device configuration, home automation protocols, network setup, and system integration.

What certification will I receive?

Every course awards a CPD-accredited certification from the CPD Certification Service, the same body trusted by the NHS, engineering firms, and financial institutions. Completing all three tiers qualifies you for entry into our Certified Installer Directory.

Can I earn while I learn?

Yes. The Beginner tier is delivered online over a weekend, so you only need a short time away from work. The Advanced tier requires in-person attendance at our training centre but is delivered over a short, intensive period to minimise disruption.

Where are the training centres?

We operate from two locations: our purpose-built flagship facility in Havant, Hampshire, and a London centre for professionals based in and around the capital. Both feature fully equipped smart home labs with professional-grade hardware.

How quickly can I start earning as a smart home installer?

Many electricians begin taking on smart home projects alongside their existing work after completing the Beginner tier. The Advanced tier deepens your practical capability, and the Pro tier opens the door to our Certified Installer Directory, a direct source of client leads.
