Written by the company
As the leading Heating, Electrical, Plumbing & First Aid training provider in the UK, Skills Training Group has facilities in Paisley, Dalgety Bay. It’s no industry secret that there is a severe skills shortage of qualified gas engineers in the UK. The privatisation of the Gas Board in 1986, further compounded by a lack of investment in public funding for apprenticeships has caused a skills gap in the industry. There are around 25 million homes in the UK, all of which require a source of heating and hot water. By far the and away, gas central heating is the most popular method of proving heating & hot water. With gas appliances requiring an annual service to maintain their manufacturer’s warranty, every rented property requiring an annual Gas Safety Certificate, repairs required to keep appliances operational & the average lifespan of a combi boiler lasting 15 years’ you can be assured training as a gas engineer is both prosperous and sustainable.

ACS refreshment
Good knowledgable trainers and very helpful. Relaxed atmosphere but one in which you still have to know your stuff and the trainers help settle any nerves. This is my last refreshment ACS so no more worries in the future.

I attended a first aid training course today and had a really positive experience from start to finish.
Ruth, the instructor, was absolutely fabulous — really clear, supportive, and made the whole course feel engaging and easy to follow. The training itself was very informative and well structured, and I felt confident throughout.
I’m really pleased to say I passed the course as well.
What really stood out was the extra effort from the team. We weren’t due to receive our certificates until Tuesday, but I needed mine by Sunday. They went out of their way to make that happen and I received it tonight at 11pm. That level of support and responsiveness is genuinely appreciated.
I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for first aid training. Thank you

First Aid training at its best.
A big thank you to Andy at the Sheffield training centre for getting me through the EFAW certificate again. The course was delivered in a style that is easy to understand and time taken to answer questions immediately. See you again in another three years, hopefully.
