Best course? Is it Baxi

[fatboy123]

I am a newly qualified gas safe engineer and want to broaden my skills and become an accredited installer.
I have heard that the Baxi 3 day fault finding course is best. Does anybody know if this is still the case as I don;t want to waste money on the course, hotels and travel if it isn't.
Any further advice on getting accredited?

it depends on which boilers you intend to install, but my advice is get on as many manufacturers courses as possible, this can help you learn about different boilers ect. and get reading through new an old mi's.

I liked the Baxi course. And well worth the money, if you are new to the gas industry, it is a good start. They teach you how to do electrical testing of Componants. Which to me was invaluable as it helps with repairing any boiler. I am signed up to do the
Vaillant ecotec one next month. I've heard it isn't that good as they only teach you how the control panel operates. The hotel fees are paid so to late to cancel.... I would like to do some Worcester courses but that is something to go on my list for towards the end of the year.

Hello, I wouldn't go to Baxi...."don't bother them....give them a chance to build a decent boiler".

I loved BAxi training. Been to Viessmann (acredited for them), but you could try to get free ones if possible. Maybe ask your gas engineer if he can get some free training for you.
