Course Content
Information from BPEC related to the course

Installers who successfully complete the BPEC Domestic Solar Hot Water Heating training course become eligible for inclusion on the Clear Skies installers list. The Clear Skies scheme, originally administered by BRE and through which funding could be accessed for solar heating installations, has been superseded by the DTI's low carbon buildings programme (LCBP). The LCBP is managed by the Energy Savings Trust (EST) and BPEC's Domestic Solar Hot Water Heating course is the only one to be recognised by the EST for which householders can draw funding for new installations .
Where a course is aimed towards an assessment/examination, it is expected that all students will enter for the qualification.
