The Metrel Academy is a platform for transferring knowledge and competencies in electrical safety testing and is partnered with the EDISON educational consortium, which provides recognized certification in this field. Both organisations are led by industry veterans with decades of hands-on experience who are committed to high-quality education, practical skills development, and professional certification for those working in electrical safety.

Knowledge
The knowledge includes a comprehensive electrical safety program, integrated with job safety planning and briefing, to guide activities based on the level of risk associated with electrical hazards. This knowledge is delivered to candidates through a combination of live presentations by expert lecturers, online seminars, educational videos, posters, leaflets, handbooks, and catalogues, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of electrical safety principles. To complement theoretical learning, hands-on training plays a crucial role. For this purpose, Metrel has developed specialized training tools focused on key areas of electrical safety testing. These tools simulate real-world testing scenarios, allowing candidates to gain practical experience with situations they are likely to encounter in the field.
Low Voltage Electrical Safety
The MI 3399 Application Training Corner is a training platform replicating typical low-voltage systems, enabling practical, hands-on learning in a controlled environment. The platform can simulate standard low-voltage electrical installations, specialized systems for medical facilities and electric vehicles, grounded and ungrounded TN, TT, and IT systems, earthing points and lightning protection systems (LPS), three-phase voltage and power quality scenarios, various electrical equipment, and photovoltaic systems.
Electrical Energetic Systems
The combination of the MI 3298 P1 Earth/Ground trainer module and the MI 3298 T Transformer/Insulation trainer module can be used to simulate a complete transmission line, including a switchyard. It is an excellent training tool for mastering various earth resistance measurement techniques and electrical insulation testing methods.
E-mobility
The MI 3333 EV Training Vehicle is a e-mobility training platform designed for personnel working with electric vehicles. It offers a wide range of hands-on exercises focused on safety protocols and procedures and enables simulation of faults and failures across key EV components, including AC sockets, cables, motors, inverters, batteries, and the vehicle chassis.
The EDISON educational consortium
The EDISON educational consortium offers certification in electrical safety testing and operates in compliance with the ISO/IEC 17024 standard and develops and maintains knowledge catalogues that serve as a basis for accredited Certification of Professional Qualifications (CPQ) or Continuous Professional Development (CPD), which are structured with integrity and quality of learning in mind.

Certification
Certification in electrical safety testing (Certificate of Competence), offered through the EDISON consortium, is aligned with specific competencies required for individuals in their workplace or professional role and supports both personal growth and organizational excellence by ensuring that certified professionals meet high standards of safety and technical expertise. It is meant for those seeking to advance their careers and improve employment prospects, as well as for employers who recognize the value of properly trained personnel.
Certificate of CompetenceCompetences refer to the skills and abilities that enable an individual to effectively perform work tasks and solve problems within a specific job role or professional environment. A Certificate of Competence serves as an official document that verifies an individual has acquired the necessary expertise by successfully passing an applied knowledge examination. It also confirms that the individual is familiar with the latest developments in the relevant technical regulations or standards covered by the certificate. |

For certification purposes, EDISON utilizes an online examination system that removes many administrative obstacles and ensures a fair, transparent certification process. The validity of the certificate is determined by the pace of technical and technological advancements, which are monitored through periodic reviews. Typically, certificates are valid for up to three years and can be renewed following the same procedures used for initial certification. A valid Certificate of Competence is essential for obtaining a work permit, which – particularly in the field of electrical safety – defines the responsibilities shared between the employee and the employer.
