Good evening, Happy Xmas,im in the forces and want to use my ELC for 3 courses, General , fire and environmental.My question is how long would it take me to do all 3 courses as the exams look as though they clash.

Good Morning Bootie999 and welcome to the forum

The length of time will depend on your available time and study method ; distance, face-to-face course attendance etc.

Hi and a warm welcome from me too Bootie999.

Merry Belated Christmas to you and yours.

Good advice from our Waterbaby above.

Look forward to seeing you in our forums as you study.

Hi Bootie

The resettlement people used to offer the 3 courses as a package, and whoever they offered it through would have to arrange the exams to fit.
Sometimes they can offer 'non-standard' exams to let them have bespoke training packages.
Best to ask your resettlement advisor.

morning bootie,
you could potentially do a cert every 3 months, however given the the exam dates do clash, you could be waiting to do a resit.

i did 2 courses back to back and although i gave 9 months to do it, i had to resit a an exam , so it took me 12 months,

however i did not have to sit the 1st part of the exams due to already having this in my general cert.

i would look at doing the general 1st . then review what you wanna do next, it may be more beneficial to get work experience within the industry that you want too work in.
kind regards
