Aim
The aim of this course is to provide gas operatives with their CCN1 reassessment and continued eligibility for CORGI registration.
Background
All operatives and heating engineers who install,
commission and repair domestic gas appliances must hold the relevant qualifications for the areas of work that they carry out. Operatives are required to obtain qualifications under the Accredited Certification Scheme (ACS). The certification scheme is regulated by the United
Kingdom Accreditation Services (UKAS). ACS certificates need to be renewed every five years. In order to renew your ACS certificate, you need to pass rigorous assessments at an approved centre such as Inverness College.
Client Group
Candidates for Reassessment must be valid ACS/CORGI card holders and must produce an original copy of their ACS certificate.
Award
On successful completion of the assessments candidates will renew their CCN1 certificate and will continue to be eligible for CORGI registration.
Course Content
The course is in two sections. The training section covers the 15 core competences in gas safety and will prepare individuals to confidently complete the ACS assessments.
The assessment section includes both written and practical tests. The practical assessments involve the candidate undertaking a series of practical checks to a standard that confirms competence in carrying out work safely.
Please note that the training section of this course is not compulsory. You could choose to go for assessment only. In practice only an extremely small number of candidates take this route and we do recommend you attend training immediately in advance of your assessment.
