As an established plumber with 15+ years experience, Emma took on our MLP gas course to expand her expertise in the Gas industry, gaining comprehensive knowledge in gas systems, hot water installations, and energy efficiency.
Course Highlights
Emma enjoyed her gas training at Logic4Training because of the variety of teaching methods that made the intensive three-week course both manageable and effective.
The welcoming atmosphere, complete with good facilities and a “decent cup of tea every break time,” made learning enjoyable, while the friendly staff created a supportive environment and opportunities to build professional connections. She also appreciated the comprehensive course content, which uniquely covered cylinders, hot water, and energy efficiency training.
Overall, Emma believes that the high-quality training at Logic4Training helps to produce skilled and knowledgeable engineers, leaving Emma highly satisfied with her experience.
Course Timings
Initially, Emma was concerned about how much she could realistically learn in just three weeks. However, she found the course structure and teaching methods highly effective, with experienced trainers who tailored their approach to different learning styles:
“Initially I was worried that with a 3-week course on the gas if would I be able to get it all in that time. However, I found that the teachers taught in multiple different methods which meant I was able to learn and take everything in well and I’ve actually found the course to be structured really well.”
Career Prospects
Upon completing the course, Emma is now prepared to build her gas portfolio before returning for her ACS (Accredited Certification Scheme) assessment. This final step will allow her to register with Gas Safe and begin her career as a qualified gas engineer.
With the addition of these gas qualifications, Emma can now take on a wider range of jobs, offering both plumbing and gas services to her clients and therefore increasing her earning potential.
