City & Guilds Plumbing Accreditation

As an accredited City & Guilds approved training centre, Able Skills is in a position to offer a variety of training and assessment courses in order to achieve plumbing qualifications.

We are aware that not everyone is in a position to dedicate long periods of time to training and so we have developed smaller, more affordable training programmes which can still provide successful candidates with City & Guilds certification.

City & Guilds 6218
