Has anyone done the city and guilds one? ?

It was in sunny slough. Two day course with lunch and a sales pitch thrown in. Not sure if they still give you the voucher for the value of the course back but I'll check when I'm back.

Does this then allow you to install them under vailliant's MCS or do you have to register yourself?

You will be back a few stone heavier after all those Guinness' I bet. Lovely stuff. Which do you prefer, original or extra cold. I like the extra cold

That umbrella scheme is a load of tosh. They can't even get my company on their accredited installer list on the website despite over 12 months of emailing backwards between the UK and German office.

I'm a Murphys man myself but will throw down the Guinness if its not on.

Never had murphys myself. Did not realise it actually had a name. Umbrella scheme. I shall look that one up

Done the BPEC solare hot water, was open book n its pretty much the same as the unvented! Before sitting the Solar thermal the college checked everyone had passed an unvented course... Think it was £55 each to do the test.

Dont think anyone has done the city and guilds one have thay lol

My mate has & it was hard, full on because they cover everything from un-glazed swimming pool heater through to solar thermal (gravity), direct & indirect systems and all the other design sides.
As I think I said before if it is anything like the solar work & exam that the Level 3's now have to do it is not easy!!
