Professionals who have approved gas qualifications and are on the Gas Safe Register could now benefit from a new grade of membership offered by the Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers (IGEM).
It was announced by the body in December 2009 that the Gas Technician grade was to be launched in the new year - meaning that workers can now take advantage of the offer.
According to IGEM, Gas Technicians will get a number of benefits from the membership, including an IGEM crest transfer for vehicles, discounts on IGEM events, networking opportunities and recognition in the sector.
Peter Eldridge, Gas Safe Register chief executive, commented: "We are pleased that IGEM are offering a new grade of membership to Gas Safe registered engineers that recognises their expertise and adds value for our registrants."
IGEM was founded in 1863 and is an influential body which is aimed at representing the gas industry and its workforce.
