Best value & competitively priced independent training in the UK. ( Manufacturers
may charge less but they are product orientated and may not satisfy the requirements
of UKAS for Microgeneration certification.)
No hidden extras. (exam fees are included)
Small personal class sizes (maximum of 11 candidates) with time for individual
attention.
Renewable Technologies are increasingly complex and constantly developing. We
do not just rely upon the information that is required to pass an examination but
offer an up to date overview of the whole market. It is a full time job just keeping
up with the changes.
Some centres run courses in renewable technology in addition to their mainstream
courses i.e. Gas or General Plumbing. Very few have the expertise or resources
to offer any more than a qualification . Courses are compressed to the bare minimum,
yes you get a qualification, but little time to discuss and understand these fascinating
subjects.
The industry is rapidly moving toward the Micro-generation Certification
Scheme. This is to ensure that industry standards are applied to these new technologies,
helping to raise the standards of workmanship and protect the public from rogue companies.
At Renewtech we are actively involved in the development and supervision of the
MCS scheme so we can offer practical advice and support if you opt to go through
that process. This will enable you to offer your customers the best possible service
and the option of access to some of the many Grants that are becoming available.
NICEIC run various Competent Persons schemes so that you can self certify
your work.
Un-vented hot water, heating services and Part “P, F, G, J, L ” are all notifiable
services. That means that as an installer you are required to notify building control,
who may then inspect the work and charge you for the privilege.
Where would you rather spend your time training? Here in Newhaven, on an
Island, in the middle of the River Ouse, minutes from the sea you can relax in
comfortable leather high back swivel reclining executive chairs (no falling asleep),
watch the boats come and go, park in a spacious car park right outside our unit and
breathe fresh sea air. We have a reception and lounge area, well equipped kitchen
with free tea and coffee, toilets and showers, vending machines, a cafe offering
hot food and only a few hundred metres from the town centre boasting excellent cafes
and pubs. Our presentations use smart board technology on a high definition screen
and hi-fi surround sound. Interactive control pads. This is the way training should
be. Welcome to the future.
What we don’t do !!!! Try to impress you with abseiling equipment that you
will probably never use. (If harnesses are required then special training is essential).
Provide large indoor mock roofs to simulate roof installation work. Again they look
impressive but roofs are by their nature varied and a specialist trade. We do give
guidance to roof installations but recommend using a qualified roofer wherever
possible.
