    There are a few choices available to you.
    You could enrol at your nearest college and study night school.
    Another option is a distance learning course that is available.
    You could do afast track course which would entail you being visited on site and a proffesional discussion being carried out. You would need to do the exams like the other options but if you were capable you could do it in a few months.

    Cheers taz.

    You need to complete your Level two Technical certificate before you can do your NVQ. Where in the UK are you.

    Re: qualifications

    I'm like you Rob, an apprentice trained engineer with no college qualifications. I started my NVQ back in August in Birmingham and i go every Saturday ( i live in manchester )
    there are 3 technical certificates to complete which so far are quite easy then you move on to a portfolio of evidence.
    Hopefully i will be finished in a year maybe earlier. Only wish id enrolled earlier. If you need any more info just Pm me.
