The Central Heating Controls Wiring and Fault Finding course is a two day-day short course aimed at anyone involved in the construction, commissioning, inspection & testing or maintenance of central heating electrical control systems. The Central Heating Controls Wiring and Fault Finding course covers all the commonly used control systems in use today and is focused on the ‘practical’ construction and commissioning along with the relevant fault finding techniques. The Central Heating Controls Wiring and Fault Finding course requires an understanding of electrical principles and cable termination skills. A requirement of this course is the successful completion of their Essential Electrics examination prior to sitting the central heating controls wiring & fault finding examinations. Please ring if clarification is needed on this point. There are two 20 minute open book examinations and the associated practical assessments. A third examination and associated assessment will be required for candidates not holding the Essential Electrics unit. The Central Heating Controls Wiring and Fault Finding course comprises of: Short theory sessions introducing the conventional wiring systems, ‘Y’ Plan, ‘S’ Plan, ‘C’ Plan, Etc. Detailed practical workshop sessions, undertaking the construction, testing and commissioning of systems Fault finding and maintenance tasks performed on working systems Examination and practical assessment preparation ready for the assessments Evaluation of the system control function (why and how it works) Each student will work on their own system, and will have plenty of time to absorb and understand how each systemworks. Advise will be given on suitable ‘tooling’ and test equipment. These are nationally recognizable qualifications which are fast becoming an essential requirement for this type of work.

The Emergency Lighting BS 5266 one day course is based upon BS5266:1 (including latest amendments), BS5266:7 and BS5266:8. Emergency lighting is essential for the safety of building occupants. It is vital that the emergency lighting automatically operates in the event of normal lighting failure. The illumination levels and period of time the illumination can be sustained should be sufficient to allow the building occupants to evacuate safely and locate both fire alarm, fire fighting and first aid equipment. The Emergency Lighting BS 5266 course provides the necessary information to designate emergency escape routes and design and commission an emergency lighting scheme to BS 5266. The morning of the Emergency Lighting BS 5266 course is spent reading through and interpreting the relevant parts of BS 5266. The afternoon takes the form of a practical workshop where a system is designed and the participant is then introduced to the practical issues of commissioning, inspection and testing, certification and reporting.
This QA Level 2 Award in citizenAID (RQF) course is a half-day course to teach the skills and knowledge needed in case one finds themselves in the middle of a terrorist attack. The skills are also usable in any event where there might be either multiple or severely injured people. Past attendees said: Attended the citizen aid course this week, absolutely brilliant. Whilst we all hope that we are never involved in a major incident, the big question though would be are we prepared, what would we do? This course discusses various incidents and some are uncomfortable to think about, but if something happened most people panic, after this course you are likely to stay calm, take control and above all save lives. This course is for everyone due to the current threats in the world, However large companies especially should consider training their staff, it may save your life or someone close to you. Highly recommended, well presented and really interesting. Benefits of this course: Following several terrorist attacks that have claimed the lives of countless victims and left many in hospital with critical injuries, both in the UK and abroad, it has been clear that normal, everyday people can save each other's lives with the right levels of training This course, together with the citizenAID Phone App and a pocket guide, has been designed by both highly experienced military and civilian clinicians This course will teach you what to do during a terrorist-related, or 'simply' a serious accident, where casualties can suffer from severe trauma. It is specifically designed to help people react safely, prioritise the injured and give life-saving first aid to the casualties RUN - HIDE - TELL - TREAT Watch this short, 4 ½ minute video by the Counter Terrorism Police UK on how to stay as safe as possible during firearms and weapons attacks Whether work is causing or aggravating mental health problems, employers have a legal responsibility toward their employees Fortunately, these events are rare, but when they do happen, being prepared can save your life, and that of others Where a risk is identified, steps must be taken to remove it or reduce it as far as reasonably practicable This half-day course gives people a good awareness of mental health in the workplace Better still, of course, is to do this citizenAID course with us, which will help a lot more!
