OFTEC Training - Courses & Assessments

OFTEC approved training for heating technicians

OFTEC training is available at over 95 OFTEC approved centres throughout the UK and Ireland. There are over five million homes in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland that are not on the gas grid, so there are plenty of business opportunities for competent and well-trained heating technicians. To work successfully in the industry, high quality training is vital. OFTEC’s unrivalled expertise means we can support you with your oil, solid fuel and heat pump training needs. OFTEC training will enable you to achieve the highest levels of competence within the industry. We do this through initial and ongoing training, with re-assessment every 5 years, continuous assessment of your skills with on-site inspections, free technical support and regular updates on industry best practice and changes to building regulations.
