What Will I Study?

We deliver the four-year Advanced Apprenticeship Standard in Plumbing and Heating and offer two pathways – Gas and Environmental. You will learn about the installation and maintenance of plumbing systems and components, and how to work under minimal supervision to install and maintain domestic cold water, hot water, central heating, sanitation, and rainwater systems. You will also develop underpinning knowledge in both environmental technologies and domestic fuel systems.

Throughout the apprenticeship, your skills base will broaden to include working with domestic gas systems and appliances, whilst working towards Gas Safe registration.
