Well these students seen above are all doing different things! The duo you see here in the first part of the video are both working on a gas fire installation.
This is of course a common job a Gas Safe Registered Engineer would come across in a real life scenario. One student is seen preparing the actual fire place for installation while his partner is using his pipe skills he would have previously learnt at the start of the course. Students shown here are currently on their 6th week of the 7 Week New Entrants Gas Training Course.
We then move onto another student working in the end bay of the practical area who is also working on his pipe skills. More specifically, he is actually installing pipe work while gaining a deeper understanding of what it takes to service the given work.
