Hi all
I've been reading this forum for a while and it is full of great information and opinions on training courses. This is my first post so take it easy on me! I am looking to do a gas course through the ACS scheme and understand the requirement for on the job experience which is where the bulk of the training will take place. I thankfully have a friend willing to give me that experience over a couple of years. I have been looking through the courses on offer and come across a couple that are not reviewed on here so would like some feedback.
Wlt-group based in Aldershot and logic4training who are based in Northolt. I have been recommended the first by someone who did a 6129 there and an energy assessor I used who was planning on doing a course at the second. Does anyone have any experience of them? Or any other recommendations near to Slough? I know I could do a course at a college but that would be one day a week which is harder to cover with childcare than 1 week here, one week later, a fortnight later etc. I would not object to travelling but think a nearer college would make it easier to return for additional weeks/training/support etc. I am not looking for a course to 'churn' me out like a sausage machine quickly but a good firm foundation to go along with practical experience to allow me to become a Gas Safe boiler engineer/installer.
If anyone has any advice on these college courses or any others I would much appreciate them.
Thanks
