Assessment Information

The ACS assessment scheme covers a range of sectors within the downstream gas industry.

Depending upon the work area specified, the candidate would normally undertake a ‘core’ assessment e.g. CCN1 followed by one or more appliance or specialised assessments e.g. CENWAT. Changeover assessments are also available.

Pre-requisites

For the initial ACS assessments, candidates must satisfy the entry requirements defined by the Assessment Scheme Rules (Category 1/ Category 2 (new entrant with transferable skills)/new entrant with no transferable skills or experience).

Candidates wishing to take re-assessment must have held the assessment element previously – if this element has expired by more than 12 months of the assessment date, it will be necessary to take the initial assessment.

Any applicants that fully meet the prerequisite requirement to undertake ACS assessments do not need to undertake refresher training. Any applicant may wish to undertake refresher training to better prepare them for the ACS assessment process.

Further Information

Assessments normally consist of a combination of practical and theory examinations. On successful completion, the assessment results will be uploaded to the Gas Safe Register. 

Expiry Information

ACS certificates are normally valid for 5 years. On expiry, candidates are eligible to take re-assessment. The re-assessment can be taken up to 6 months prior to the expiry date of the initial qualification without losing out (MOT style). Previous certificates must be presented as evidence of holding the initial qualification.

Weekend training and assessment available. Training is not a prerequisite of assessment.
