In order to join or remain on the gas safe register (formerly known as corgi), engineers must undertake 5 yearly competence assessments. The initial assessments are for new entrants completing their accredited certificates via the ACS, ISA or C&G route for the first time or existing engineers who have allowed their acs to expire more than 1 year. Re-Assessment is for those who already hold these competences but whose certificates are due to expire. Our Preparation area includes open and closed book practice exams, practical assessment simulations, audio visual training, help with Portfolio building., and post graduation employer sponsorship to get solo experience and work references. We can even take over, or manage your training and assessments anywhere in the UK at our preferred business rates.

GAS ASSESSMENTS - WHAT TO EXPECT

Picture
The Domestic ACS CCN1 Core Gas Safety Element alone comprises fifteen core competencies which are assessed by written and practical tests. Engineers are able to add appliance competencies such as CENWAT, CKR1, HTR1, MET1 which involves further written and practical assessment.

The ACS Assessments are not training and you will only achieve certification by achieving 100% on all the examinations and practical assessments. This can take from 2 to 7 days to complete, If you fail some of the assessments by a small margin you will be given the opportunity to return within 3 months having sourced additional training and preparation.

The Core Assessments can be found below
Gas Assessments can only be undertaken by persons holding an existing CCN1 Certificate, MLP Learner Certificate or related Trade Certificate. Students must have reached the required level of documented competence prior to being permitted entry. Give us a call if you need more information.
