Learn Plumbing and Gas in one package!

Thinking about becoming a Plumber? Well, maybe you should get ahead of the game with our City & Guilds Level 2 Plumbing & Gas Course. Many plumbers often aim to pickup the trade of gas during their career, the two trades are very similar in many ways and go hand in hand.  Being able to carry out both plumbing and gas engineer work will drastically increase your earning and opportunities, especially whilst working on a self-employed basis. - Today we will be looking at how a combined package of plumbing and gas courses works and how to get involved...

How does this package work?

Obviously we do not expect you as a new entrant to learn the two trades at the same time, instead you will take on one after another at a discounted price when compared to taking the two qualifications separately. The City & Guilds Level 2 Plumbing & Gas Course course will see you first complete a plumbing qualification at Level 2 over a period of 5-weeks before moving on to a comprehensive 5-week Gas training course which is the starting point for a career as a Gas Engineer. We feel that this way is best as you will not become confused learning the two trades at the exact same time. You'll take on plumbing first become the skills you will earn will help you to more easily understand some gas tasks, during the plumbing section of this two part course we will cover things like; health and safety, electrical principles and processes, scientific principles, common plumbing processes, cold water systems, domestic hot water systems, sanitation, central heating systems and drainage systems. Which will mostly transfer over when you begin gas training.
