Making sure you get the right training when you are looking to become a Gas Safe Engineer is vitally important.
Some training centres in the UK will be more worried about your money than they will be about giving the correct and safe training. Getting the wrong training and not being fully qualified can be very dangerous when working in people’s homes if you are not a Gas Safe Engineer.
Over the last few years the Gas Safe Register have cracked down on illegal, unqualified gas engineers and have raised awareness about how dangerous gas work can be. Many ‘gas engineers’ have been given fines and in some cases prison sentences for carrying out illegal and unsafe gas work in people’s homes.
Unsafe gas work can be extremely dangerous with chances of gas leaks, carbon monoxide poisoning, explosions, and fires. This is exactly why homeowners and landlords need to make sure they are calling out a Gas Safe Engineer to carry out their gas work.
Here at Able Skills we offer various gas training packages for people looking to take different learning paths. We are now offering a new package of learning that involves five weeks of training and portfolio.
Our new package is split into five stages which incorporates the five-week gas safety training. This is to allow our students more practical experience and to gain a higher standard of pipe working skills to be able to install cold and hot water heating systems that they will be working with in the industry. This will also give them theory knowledge on all the systems and appliances. We believe this enables our students to be more employable in the future due to a higher standard of training, skills, and knowledge they will come away with.
