Why study here
A path to international certification
At the end of the course, alongside the local certificate, a practical exam to an international standard with the right to work abroad.
Networks above 1000V
Safe work with high-voltage networks and at height — hands-on, not on a training mock-up.
Transformer and cable installation
Practice connecting and disconnecting real transformer equipment, and fitting couplings onto cable.
Dormitory and meals on campus
A comfortable dormitory and three hot meals a day for those travelling in from the regions, at an affordable daily rate.
Course structure
The difference is not chosen in advance — the clearance category (up to 1000V or above) is set by your level of preparation and the result of the final exam. There is a separate programme for those who work only with a building's internal networks (elektromontajchi).
- ≤1000V
Category up to 1000V
Connecting and testing low-voltage networks, work adapted to a building's internal electrical systems, standard electrical-safety requirements.
Local category certificate - >1000V
Category above 1000V
High-voltage networks and transformer substations, a special permit for working at height, enhanced electrical-safety requirements.
Eligibility for international certification
- Month 1
Theory and safety
Reading electrical diagrams, the structure of high- and low-voltage networks, electrical-safety and height-work rules.
- Month 2
Practical measurement and installation
Professional electrical measuring instruments, replacing insulators on poles, fitting couplings onto cable.
- Month 3
Advanced practice
Connecting and disconnecting a transformer, installing voltage step-down systems, fault-finding and the final exam.

Questions
The questions asked most often about this programme.
Can I learn the electrician's trade from scratch?
Yes. The course starts from scratch: theory and safety in the first month, then practical measurement and installation, then advanced practice with a transformer.
What is the difference between the up-to-1000V and above-1000V categories?
The clearance category is not chosen in advance — it is set by your level of preparation and the result of the final exam. There is a separate programme, elektromontajchi, for those who work only with a building's networks.
What is the international certificate, and do I need it?
A practical exam to an international standard — it opens up work abroad and on international projects. For work in Uzbekistan, the state certificate is enough.
I already work as an electrician and only need the certificate — is that possible?
Yes, you can sit the exam without the course: 1m so'm. A theory and practical check.
Is there a separate charge for equipment and materials?
No, materials and protective equipment are included in the course price.
Can I live in the dormitory?
Yes: 75,000 so'm a day for the dormitory, 75,000 so'm for meals (three a day). Both are optional.
