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.

My experience in the first aid at work course was great because the trainer Andy king was very well prepared for the whole course he was knowledgeable on everything he was teaching and went into great detail.
