Oil courses explained
Working towards OFTEC registration? These quick answers explain the certificates, the packages and who each route suits.
Most oil installers need three: OFT101 for pressure jet appliances, OFT105E for oil installation and energy conservation, and OFT600A for oil storage tanks.
Between them they cover the appliance, the installation and the tank, which is the full scope of a typical domestic oil heating job. Our Oil Boiler Package covers all three together.

Yes. The courses in this range are for experienced installers, typically heating engineers adding oil to their existing competence.
If you are new to the trade, start with OFT50, our beginner oil course, which sits in the new entrants section and provides the underpinning knowledge these qualifications assume.

Our oil qualifications are awarded and certified by OFTEC, the Oil Firing Technical Association, and Logic4training is an OFTEC approved centre.
OFTEC operates the industry's competence assessment scheme and runs a government-approved Competent Person Scheme, which is what allows registered technicians to self-certify work under Part J of the Building Regulations rather than notifying building control on every job.
Unlike gas, oil work has no legally mandated register, but OFTEC registration is what customers, insurers and building control expect.

Unlike gas, oil work has no legally mandated register, but OFTEC registration is what customers, insurers and building control expect.
If you need all three main qualifications, the package is the cheaper route. Booked individually, OFT101, OFT105E and OFT600A come to £1,035 + VAT against £825 + VAT for the Oil Boiler Package.
It is also one block of time away from the tools rather than three separate bookings. If you already hold some OFTEC certificates and only need to add or renew one, the individual courses are the better fit.

Oil heating has no direct equivalent of Gas Safe registration, but in practice OFTEC registration is what customers, insurers and building control expect.
Registration lets you self-certify installation work under Building Regulations rather than notifying local authority building control for every job, which saves time and cost. Holding the OFTEC qualifications is the first step towards registering.
See OFTEC for current registration requirements.

OFTEC assessments are valid for five years, after which you need to be reassessed to stay registered.
Most engineers renew all their certificates at the same time so the dates stay aligned, which avoids repeat trips to a centre. Book before your certificates expire rather than after, since lapsed qualifications can mean a longer route back.

Individual OFTEC courses typically run over one to two days, with the full Oil Boiler Package taking around a week.
These are short upskill and assessment courses rather than long programmes, so they are designed to keep you off the tools for as little time as possible.
Exact durations are listed on each course page within our oil training range.
