What is Gas Safe? Gas Safe Register is the official registration body for gas engineers in the UK, appointed by the Health and Safety Authority to ensure the highest standards of gas safety. Only engineers listed on the Gas Safe Register are legally allowed to work on gas appliances, ensuring all installations, servicing, and repairs are carried out safely and competently. Holding Gas Safe registration demonstrates professionalism, technical expertise, and a commitment to maintaining safety and quality within the gas industry.
You will need to have previously been Corgi or Gas Safe registered to apply for the CCN1 Initial training and assessment.
Initial appliance training and assessment will only be offered to candidates who have previously held the qualifications or candidates who have been Gas Safe registered for at least 12 months and are now able to extend their range (Initial Appliances) which can be discussed on application. New entrants to the gas industry will be required to undertake a managed learning programme or an apprenticeship in gas engineering. At the present time we only offer the apprenticeship and not the managed learning programme.
We want you to achieve to the very best of your ability at CRC. To make this happen we offer both learning and personal support by specialist staff tailored to meet your specific needs.
Achievement is by successful completion of Practical assessments and theory tests.
