Considering a career as a Gas Engineer?
If you’re thinking of becoming a Gas Engineer we offer a Gas Apprenticeship scheme funded by the LSC. If you’re not eligible for funding, or cannot give up your existing career to become a Gas Apprentice we can still help you.
Your best option if you’re looking to retain while in your current job is to get an NVQ in a related trade, such as plumbing (see our becoming a gas engineer pages). Alternatively, if you are able to get a job with a gas contracting company while you train you can undertake our Level 2 Gas NVQ course (see our careers in construction pages)
For existing Gas Engineers
If you are an experienced gas engineer already working within the industry and interested in renewing your ACS tickets or expanding you knowledge and skills to take on more work (either in an additional fuel e.g. LPG or in an additional sector e.g. commercial/industrial you may consider the wide range of ACS courses we have on offer.
