Part-Time Courses

Filton College has been working with local and regional employers in the fuel engineering sector for many years, providing courses for the Accredited Certification Scheme (ACS). These are designed and monitored by such prestigious groups as City and Guilds, Corgi and British Gas. Certification is accredited by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB).

The ACS Level 2 and 3

The ACS Level 2 & 3 courses provide for people who are already working within the gas industry but who need to be upskilled or re-trained to obtain the accredited qualifications recognised by the sector.
