Domestic Hot Water Storage Systems (Unvented)

Domestic Hot Water Storage Systems (Unvented) Course

We have developed our Domestic Hot Water Storage Systems (Unvented) Course for online delivery using webinar software.  This means that plumbing and heating engineers can now undertake our Domestic Hot Water Storage Systems (Unvented) Course remotely via a desktop or laptop computer on the following dates.

Online courses run in the morning from 8.30 to 10.30:

  • 4th to 8th March
  • 3rd to 7th June
  • 2nd to 6th September
  • 30th September to 4th October

To maximise the effectiveness of how we deliver each course, we run our online courses over five days in two-hour segments. This has the added advantage for installers of not having to take a whole day off from trading as appointments can be scheduled around the two-hour time slots.

This course can be booked via a digital booking form and the training materials are delivered electronically, and can either be printed off at home or viewed on a second computer screen or via a tablet. The end assessment is carried out using Adobe Acrobat Reader, which can be downloaded free of charge from the Adobe website.
