Multiple choice questions mainly. Open book for a lot of it.

 

[Orry Clayton]

is there a practical assessment, as with gas?

 

[Best]

Practical is part of the 101 course & I wasn't impressed with it. Still a bit nerve wrecking though! Electric safety (isolating & testing supply), fault finding & combustion setting. Not teach you much.
If you work at gas boilers & heating systems, most of the basics you will already know.

your paying for the books mainly and you wont learn alot if you dont have a good foundation in heating and boiler/burners

Harsh. But accurately summed up!

the regulation from oftec is pony anyway it just a money spinner for an organisation that is doing nothiing to protect the customers or the engineers in the oil industry letting anyone sit these courses and then certify that they are engineers , also next to no regulatory system in place to spot check engineers and boiler passports what are they lol im talking about rep of ireland here i dont know how they operate in the uk maybe better .how do u find it croppie
