This course is aimed at those employed within the sector looking to become
qualified in gas engineering and become involved in the safe installation,
commission, decommission and the ongoing service and repair of gas appliances in
either domestic or non-domestic settings. The appliances can include, but are
not limited to, central heating boilers, unvented hot water storage, ducted air
heaters, cookers, space heaters, meters, alternative fuel, boosters, testing and
purging for industrial pipework.
Gas engineering operates strictly within the requirements of health and
safety legislation.
To supplement development as a Gas Operative in the workplace you will attend
college on a day release basis and learn through tutor led classroom and
workshop sessions. Moodle resources will also be used to support self-
study.
