Free training on heat pumps and electric heating advice

We are here to help your organisation provide sound advice on home heating options to the people you support.

If your organisation provides energy advice to households, you can receive free training on giving good advice about heat pumps - from how they work and what homes are suitable, to getting to grips with the controls and how to get the best from them. Our online training can be tailored to your organisation's needs.

We also offer a course on electric heating, metering, and billing, which covers everything an energy advisor needs to know to be able to give sound advice on the wide variety of electric heating systems, including storage heaters, heat pumps, and ‘restricted meter’ tariffs like ComfortPlus Control and Total Heat Total Control.

We'd love to hear from you
