Updates on your ACS assessment!

With the announcement from the government to extend the national restrictions for at least an additional 3-weeks, the Gas Safe Register wanted to provide engineers with the latest updates and reminders of changes that may affect your business. This includes a few different aspects, however, today let's look at what they said about ACS assessments and what to do if your ACS gas qualifications have recently expired or are due to expire shortly...Additionally how we can help with your Gas training courses including ACS re-assessments!

Gas Courses

Gas courses here at Able Skills. Including ACS assessments!

Here at Able Skills, we are a proud training centre that offers a high quality of Gas training courses including ACS assessments but at this moment in time, in accordance with the government's advice we are unable to offer any training until further notice. When we are able to open again we will keep everyone posted through our social media pages and via the homepage of this website!

What is the update?

Well, the Gas Safe Register has said "If your ACS gas qualifications have recently expired or are due to expire shortly, we understand that you may have some concerns about whether you will be able to continue to carry out gas work. HSE will permit registered gas engineers to remain on the Register for an additional period during the peak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) measures, provided they maintain their Gas Safe registration and continue to work safely. This is a temporary measure and does not remove the standing requirement for registered gas engineers to maintain their ACS certification and renew certification every 5 years. Remember, you must renew your qualifications as soon as possible after the restrictions are lifted."

What can we do for you?

Usually, we would be able to get your ACS Reassessment sorted here at our centre. Our aim is to provide existing Gas Engineers with an Assessment or Re-Assessment process which is straight forward and to the point. Read more by clicking the links throughout this article. We are looking forward to getting back to doing what we do best and help you get your re-assessment sorted. Again, we will keep you posted on social media and through our website.
