Progression with Able Skills:

As stated before, these courses will not qualify you as a plumber but they will contribute greatly towards any plumbing qualification you may decide to undertake. Having completed our plumbing courses, you will have obtained many skills which will make completion of the City & Guilds 6129 plumbing course much easier to complete with confidence.

If you decide that you would like to pursue a career as a plumber then the City & Guilds 6129 is the next step. This qualification is industry standard and is a basis for progression to a variety of work paths. This course will provide you with the underpinning knowledge to tackle many other plumbing related subjects from gas to water regulations to energy efficiency. All of which can be completed with Able Skills separately or as part of a plumbing package.

Additionally, any electrical work undertaken within the bathroom or kitchen environment falls within Part P Regulations. At Able Skills we can provide you with the training and qualifications to become a Part P Domestic Installer. Please visit our Electrical Part P page for full details.

Gas Training: There is now an alternative route into the gas industry which is slightly more relaxed but still strictly governed. This route is known as “the Approved Prior Learning” route. A 5 day intensive plumbing course and a 5 day advanced plumbing course will now be acceptable as proof of having mechanical engineering skills which qualify you to enrol onto our Gas training course. Please visit the relevant gas training page for full details of how you could be on your way to Corgi registration.

With these new skills you will have the confidence to take on everyday DIY projects around the house or develop your expertise to a career in plumbing.
