City & Guilds 2394-01 Initial Verification Course at The Builder Training Centre is a new qualification that includes both hands-on practical and theory elements. Ideally suited for anyone who has limited experience of initial inspection of electrical installations, or those who have not carried out inspection and testing since qualifying or require a refresher course before progressing onto other qualifications, who are looking to carry out initial verification of electrical installation work.

The 2394 qualification has been introduced to replace the City & Guilds 2391-10.  This qualification is similar to the City & Guilds 2392-10 qualification, except the 2394 includes 3 phase.
