I was considering sitting the exams, it,s would be a lot of work to extend my knowledge to achieve passes in 4 modules but with effort I feel I could have a good go. I,ve read though some sample questions and as a result feel more positive about sitting the exams.
However on reading though the membership application form less so, I am worried that I have learned my signalling knowledge though experience,reading and a general interest in the signalling equipment I,ve installed each working day for the last 15 years or so, rather than formal signalling courses or a university degree.
Also at my low level,( licensed signalling installation team leader), I simply don,t know any IRSE members or fellows who could sign my application form.
I am prepared to do the work but worry that after passing the exams I still would not be excepted for membership.
Please advise is membership not an option for someone like me?
