ACOPS - Caravan Gas Safety Course

Overview

A mandatory qualification for anyone wishing to work as a gas engineer within the gas maintenance and testing of caravans.

Description

This course is designed for engineers who work within the caravan industry and for most engineers will need to work to the competence level as set by the Health and Safety regulations. 

ACOPS is seen as the minimum standard for anyone working on gas appliances where Gas Safe Registration is not required.  However it can be used as a pre-requisite qualification to advance to the ACS assessment level providing an auditable trail of 'On the Job' Gas training is evidence with it. 

This course can be trained and assesed in actual workshops or in our state-of-the-art college premises at Station Park, Kirkby-in-Ashfield.  Engineers who work on caravans and motorhomes which are NOT hired out in the course of the business do not need to be Gas Safe Registered.
