    Is there an exam for amendment 3 ?

    Hi Andy, You do not need to take a new 17th edition course if you already hold a valid 17th edition qualification. However your installations must adhere to all the most recent amendments and you should have a copy of the new yellow book. A lot of people did offer Amendment 3 courses but they...

    Glad to see the domestic work is booming in the midlands

    Hi All, The reason we originally got involved in this thread was because our integrity and the validity of this case study was questioned. To get drawn into a debate about long and short courses is pointless because in our view people taking training are always to be supported by doing the...
