Any questions?
The registration process is managed by WorldSkills UK and so unfortunately NET will not be able to answer any questions about registration. You can contact WorldSkills UK via the following routes: T: 0800 612 0742 E: getintouch@worldskillsuk.org
What you need to know before you register:
1. Places are limited so registration is on a first come, first served basis.
2. Unlike previous years you will not be able to select a venue for your heat. You will be able to view the full list of regional heats on the WSUK website (also shown below) and select a 1st and 2nd preference. After 2nd April NET will allocate completed registrations on a first come, first served basis. Where a candidate’s preference is not possible, they will be offered any other remaining venues.
3. You’ll need the following information to hand during the registration process:
- Competitor’s full name
- Competitor’s mobile number
- Competitor’s email address
- Competitor’s full postal address
- Competitor’s DOB
- Competitor’s apprenticeship status
- Competitor’s current or historical apprenticeship course
- If the competitor is associated with any other organisation e.g. another training provider or managing agent.
4. Competitors should be an apprentice electrician working in the electrotechnical industry and are working towards or having achieved their Level 3 qualification within the last 12 months. Competitors must be familiar with the Core Competencies and meet the attributes set out in the Talent Spotting Checklist, both of which are found in the Pre-Competition Manual.
5. To help you prepare for the live competition, use the Pre-Competition Activity pack along with the Training to Succeed Manual.
