I just completed the BPEC water regs course and boy do I find it useless.
Perhaps course is not the right term as I had about 1 hr of presentation followed by an hour of exam and that was it.
It was an open book exam and the page and line on which the answer was found was written underneath each question.
So it was mostly a test about being able to copy over the answers straight from the book. And I was still unable to score 100%!
It was a thick book as well, so there is a lot of material to learn or understand. Sadly, I wasn't even given the book as part of the course.
So I got the cert and I'm none the wiser, except for learning that my kitchen sink is as foul as my toilet (cat 5).
How did you guys find the course?
I also found out many plumbers don't have this cert, which makes it not very important if they're able to trade as such without it..
