A T Certificate ?

[BQW]

Has any one herd of a electrical qualification called a, A T Certificate ?
The reason being, is I applied for a Maint sparks job in a NHS Hospital, and was not even considered because I had no, A T Certificate ? Got all the other papers 17th, 2391 etc
Ive never herd of it, so I phoned a couple of skill centres, neither had they !

I am not sure what response they are going to get to the vacancy, starting money was
£9.84 Hr !

Could be completely unrelated to electrics, might be something about hygiene or safeguarding?

One might think so, but such an animal does not appear to be mentioned in the (extensive) guidelines on 'NHS Employment Checks' - for example, click here .

Further, as the OP has probably discovered, Mr Google does not seem to know about it, and "Mr Google knows everything"!

If it weren't for the salary being offered, one would suggest that the OP should contact the HR department of the hospital concerned and ask them what on earth they are talking about. If this happened in writing, it might even be a typo!

Kind Regards, John

Who knows?!

For what it's worth, although the word "certificate" appears 64 times in the (308-page) 'JIB Handbook' ( click here ), none of them relate to an "A T Certificate".

Kind Regards, John

Apprentices earn more than that!

A T Certificate

Only thing even close to that is the AM2.

Perhaps they mean a technical certificate - one of the NVQ requirements.

This site is a bit worrying...

Possibly - but I stills suspect that it may well have been a typo!

Anti terrorism certificate.

That's CTC

It's probably to prove you're LBGT diversity compliant.

That would be a PC AT certificate, surely?
