Written by the company
As the leading Heating, Electrical, Plumbing & First Aid training provider in the UK, Skills Training Group has facilities in Paisley, Dalgety Bay. It’s no industry secret that there is a severe skills shortage of qualified gas engineers in the UK. The privatisation of the Gas Board in 1986, further compounded by a lack of investment in public funding for apprenticeships has caused a skills gap in the industry. There are around 25 million homes in the UK, all of which require a source of heating and hot water. By far the and away, gas central heating is the most popular method of proving heating & hot water. With gas appliances requiring an annual service to maintain their manufacturer’s warranty, every rented property requiring an annual Gas Safety Certificate, repairs required to keep appliances operational & the average lifespan of a combi boiler lasting 15 years’ you can be assured training as a gas engineer is both prosperous and sustainable.

It was a good comfortable training day
It was a good comfortable training day. A relaxed but educational atmosphere. Everything was explained in a clear and concise manner, which made it easy to understand (I`ve never been involved with PAT testing before, but feel confident that I have the necessary knowledge to do a through job after this training). Good facilities with toilets that were clean and easily accessible. Plus there is an onsite café which is reasonably priced. A good day all round, thank you.
