Plumbing, Heating and Gas Installer Platinum Package

Logic4training’s platinum package starts with our Level 2 NVQ Plumbing Diploma, covering the basics of the installation and maintenance of cold and hot water systems, and central heating. The course includes practical skills, legislation and the WRAS Water regulations, with training taking place in the classroom and on a site of your choice.

Following on from the plumbing NVQ Diploma, candidates will undertake our domestic gas Managed Learning Programme (MLP) which covers everything required to become a Gas Safe registered installer, including Hot Water Systems & Safety, Gas ACS and on site work experience, which we can arrange for you*.

Both the plumbing and gas installation elements of this programme include the experience and qualifications required to achieve the necessary CSCS cards and Competent Persons Scheme recognition – the JIB Plumbing Skills Card, Approved Plumber Status and Gas Safe Registration.

There are no prerequisites for this course, but we will assess candidates to check their suitability. A good understanding of maths and English is essential.

Trainees need access to a site where they can carry out plumbing and gas engineering tasks in order to be assessed and compile their portfolios. For the MLP element, we can help source a work experience placement, but there will be an additional cost involved.

Training as a plumber is ideal for practically minded people – if you like fixing things, solving problems and working with your hands, then this NVQ Diploma could be for you.
