EV charging is becoming another service customers expect their electrician to understand.

If it’s not part of your skill set yet, there’s a pretty good opportunity to change that.

NECA Education & Careers’ Electric Vehicle Charging Essentials course gives electricians practical, job-ready knowledge for residential and small-commercial EV charger installations up to 22kW.

It’s one day, face-to-face and right now, it’s FREE for eligible participants with dates available in Dandenong, Carlton North and Ballarat.

Learn how to select the right charger, understand maximum demand, design a compliant installation, integrate charging with solar and confidently advise your customers.

Have you ever thought about taking your electrical career in a different direction?

The EDGE Program helps experienced electricians turn what they know on the tools into skills they can use in the classroom.

Because being a great electrician and being a great trainer are two different things.

EDGE gives you the support, confidence and practical teaching skills to explain complex ideas, connect with apprentices and help shape the next generation of the industry.

That’s exactly what it did for NECA Education & Careers teacher Ashleigh Wainwright.

So, if you’ve ever thought about:
⚡ Passing on what you know
⚡ Giving back to the industry
⚡ Taking on a new challenge
