Equally, it is also suitable for those of you already working in the plumbing industry and who require in-depth technical knowledge and qualifications without completing an apprenticeship. This is an industry recognised, formal trade qualification and is required in order for candidates to progress further in their plumbing training/career. The course will provide you with a range of plumbing skills covering various topics including Electrical principles and processes, Common plumbing processes, Cold water systems, Domestic hot water systems, Sanitation, Central heating systems and Drainage systems.

Additionally, we will also provide access to a variety of plumbing videos to assist you during your training and afterwards should you ever need a quick refresher when you are on a job.  

Our Level 2 Plumbing course is available full-time over six weeks, with a part-time weekend option also available. A home study option is available too. Please note that weekend courses are priced higher than the full-time option.

Weekend training follows a flexible two-weekends-on, two-weekends-off schedule, giving you time to balance your training with other work, study or personal commitments.

To support your learning, we provide access to the City & Guilds (C&G) SmartScreen online learning resource, along with the Level 2 C&G textbook.
