Low-carbon heat pumps are critical technologies for decarbonising heat. To meet the UK’s legally-binding climate targets, thousands more heating engineers will need to learn to install and maintain these technologies.

To be eligible you must hold at least a Level 2 Qualification in Plumbing/Heating or related trade, or a Gas qualification as well as the WRAS Water Regulations qualification. We can provide the Water Regulations free of charge if you do not already hold this qualification.

✅ Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) – Are You Eligible Without All the Formal Qualifications?

At Activate Training, we understand that many trades people and engineers have years of valuable experience – even if they don't hold every formal qualification listed as a course pre-requisite.

That’s why we use Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) to help experienced professionals access key renewable training like:

Heat Pumps
Low Temperature Hot Water System Design
Unvented Hot Water G3
Water Regulations

🛠️ What Counts as Prior Learning?

If you’ve worked in the industry and have hands-on experience, you may still be eligible to enrol even if you don’t hold an NVQ3 – as long as you can provide:

Employer letters confirming your job roles and tasks
Photos or documents of work you've done
Old or partial qualifications or training certificates
Signed statements from site managers or supervisors
A clear technical CV

🔍 What’s Next?

Our experienced tutors will carry out a quick initial assessment to see if you meet the standard through RPL. If accepted, you can start your training with confidence.
