There are two main ways of becoming a lighting technician. You could either qualify as an electrician or get practical experience in production lighting, or you could take a technical theatre course at college or university.

Currently, to qualify as an electrician you will need either:

· NVQ Level 3 Diploma in Electro-technical Services (Electrical Maintenance) or

· NVQ Level 3 Diploma in Installing Electro-technical Systems and Equipment (Buildings and Structures).
