Our most comprehensive plumbing course with an industry recognised qualification. This is a formal plumbing trade qualification but you do not need to be a plumber to start this. This qualification is ideal for students who want to develop and progress in their career or for anyone who wants to start a new career. All of the training and assessments can be done in our centre so you do not have to be working onsite to complete the qualification.
All of the practical training and assessment is carried out in the centre allowing you to complete the qualification without delay and with our full support. It is possible to split this course into smaller sections to fit around work or other commitments.
Each Unit of the course contains practical assessments, which are assessed by one of our qualified assessors and evidence kept to build up a complete portfolio. There are also multiple-choice tests, which can be undertaken at the centre or on your own PC. You will be fully supported by our tutors throughout the qualification. Our small classes mean you will have plenty of support and hands on guidance from your tutor and assessors.
The following units are covered:
Health and safety in building services engineering
Electrical principles and processes for building services engineering
Scientific principles for domestic, industrial and commercial plumbing
Common plumbing processes
Cold water systems

After completing the Diploma, you may want to progress onto the plumbing NVQ at a later date and you can also complete that with us.

Over the years we've built up a fantastic community of students – you can join our ’Leak Geeks’ support groups both on WhatsApp and a dedicated Facebook page. You will have instant access to support from a close network of tutors and experienced plumbers.
Business start up training is optional on all of our courses – our experienced tutors will guide you on establishing and running your business.
