The Able Skills Boiler Fault Finding & Heating Controls Course is available to any Gas Safe registered engineer. It’s also offered to Able Skills Gas students either as part of their course or as an add-on training, depending on their chosen package of learning.

We asked Bir, a student from one of the recent courses, to tell us about why he was doing the course and how the qualification would support the development of his gas career.

He explained that because he wants to become a service and breakdown engineer, the course would help him gain a better understanding of diagnostics, as it provides a simple framework to follow to investigate the faults.
