City & Guilds Level 2 Plumbing Course for Experienced Plumbers

What You’ll Learn

This isn’t a training course; it is an assessment process to establish your knowledge as a Plumber and to show that you can meet the competence requirements of this level 2 Plumbing Diploma. As a time served Plumber, we will require you to provide evidence to show that you have been undertaking a variety of plumbing work for a minimum of 3 years. This can be by way of employer references and witness testimonies etc.

How You’ll Learn

Able Skills has developed this process to assist experienced workers currently working in the plumbing industry to achieve C&G 6035.

These qualifications are unit structured with:

• Practical Units: These are achieved by a mix of knowledge and practical activities in simulated conditions within the centre.
• Knowledge Units: These units are assessed by multi-choice tests / assignments – undertaken in the training centre.

This Experienced Worker route will require you to:

• Provide evidence that you have a minimum of 3 years plumbing experience
• Undertake study at home to prepare you for the online exams in centre
• Undertake practical assessments in centre
