Our Service and Mains Laying Programme is completely flexible to suit your requirements.
We don’t believe in training for the sake of it, so we build a programme focusing on exactly what you want and need. For example, we can run short half day sessions for individual subjects such a drilling and tapping or electrofusion welding, right through to a six day programme that covers your exact requirements.
Due to the bespoke nature of our programme, you will not receive a formal qualification, however our training mirrors the requirements of the QCF for Network Construction operations in Water Distribution.
