The ACS scheme assesses operative competence to carry out gas work safely. Refresher training is offered as part of the assessment package.
Entry Requirements:
The ACS Gas Scheme classifies applicants into the following categories:
Category 1 :
Applicants are experienced gas fitting operatives, with existing gas knowledge and skills seeking to renew expiring or expired certificates of gas safety competence or seeking assessment and certification to extend their range of gas work. Applicants applying for assessment must present to the centre all appropriate certificates of gas safety competence.
Category 2 :
Applicants hold a nationally recognised qualification, such as an NVQ/SVQ or City & Guilds Craft certificate, in a trade associated with gas work, e.g. plumbing. They must provide evidence that they hold qualifications relevant to the area of gas work they are seeking to obtain certification in. They must provide written evidence to the centre confirming that they have undertaken ‘on-the- job’ gas installation under the direct supervision of a competent operative.
Category 3 :
Applicants are new entrants to the gas industry. As such, they are without a relevant related qualification and/or experience, entering employment for the first time or changing career direction. Individuals in this category are advised to seek relevant training and experience.
Further details on category entry are available.
Course Syllabus:
These assessments have been designed to test competence in gas safety work by both written and practical assessments in accordance with the requirements of the Nationally Accredited Certification Scheme (ACS) for Individual Gas Fitting Operatives.
The assessment relates only to gas safety systems and equipment, and the knowledge and understanding required to install, inspect and service such systems and equipment in accordance with appropriate regulations and to provide advice to customers.
