We have launched two new Level 3 Gas Auditing qualifications. One qualification has been designed for gas engineers responsible for auditing gas work, in order to check it is safe and has been carried out correctly - a particular requirement for social housing properties. The second Gas Auditing qualification is specifically for businesses that carry out audits of their own or other businesses operations as part of their work management procedures.
Gas Safety in the Social Housing Sector
We all recognise the importance of gas safety in the social housing sector, as the potential for things to go wrong is all too real. Current legislation, known as Regulation 36, requires landlords of local authority housing, housing associations and co-operatives to protect their tenants in just the same way as those renting in the private sector.
Gas safety and auditing courses at Gas Utilisation 2017
We will be exhibiting at at IGEM's Gas Utilisation conference on Wednesday 20th September 2017, at The Slate Conference Centre on the Warwick University campus.
The conference, dedicated to those working in the utilisation sector of the gas industry, is entitled Compliance - A Changing Landscape. It focuses on a number recent developments pertinent to gas professionals. Changes they need to take on board, in order to remain compliant. We'll be promoting our Gas Safety Management courses and two excellent new courses we have developed on Gas Auditing. It's the perfect opportunity to meet and talk about your training requirements.
