Stuck? Ask a practising engineer

A free course usually means a comment section and hope. This one does not. Every module has an Ask-your-trainer panel that reaches the same engineers who teach our paid programme: people who commission panels for a living, not moderators.

  • Questions answered in the context of the module you are on
  • The same engineers who teach the AEP programme
  • Career tools, CV help and public job listings included
  • Your progress and notes stay in your account for good

Common questions

Is Revit free?

Autodesk education licences are free for students and educators; a 30-day trial covers the course otherwise.

Revit MEP or AutoCAD Electrical?

Revit is BIM for buildings (consultants, contractors); AutoCAD Electrical is schematics for panels and machines. Both have courses here.

Does it cover HVAC and plumbing too?

Yes. The core is electrical, with HVAC, plumbing and fire-protection modules so you can coordinate with the other disciplines.

Is the course really free?

Yes. Every module, practice task and assessment. You create an account so your progress is saved and the assessments can be marked. The certificate is the only paid item, and only if you want it.

What certificate do I get, and is it a vendor qualification?

An EDWartens Certificate of Completion, issued when you pass the final assessment, with a verification code anyone can check. It is not a vendor credential and is never described as one.
