Once you've booked your course, we'll guide you through every step of the process, making your learning journey as smooth and straightforward as possible.

Immediately after your purchase, you'll receive a confirmation email containing your booking details. Please check your inbox and your junk or spam folder, as confirmation emails can occasionally be filtered by your email provider.

The confirmation email will also contain a secure link to complete your enrolment. You'll be asked to upload any required documents so we can process your registration and prepare your course. Completing your enrolment as soon as possible helps us ensure everything is ready before your training begins.

If you've booked an online or self-study course, you'll also receive access to our Student Assessment Management System (SAMS), where you'll find your learning materials, assignments and course resources.

Before your course starts, we'll send you everything you need, including your course schedule, joining instructions and any preparation required. For online courses, you'll receive details of how to join your live training sessions. For classroom courses, we'll provide the venue information and everything you need for the day.

Once your training has been completed, you'll work through your assignments and portfolio. Your tutor will review each submission, provide feedback where necessary and sign off your work as you successfully complete each assessment.

After all of your assignments have been signed off, your portfolio is reviewed by our Internal Quality Assurer (IQA) as part of our quality assurance process. Once this has been completed, your qualification is claimed from the awarding organisation, and your certificate is typically issued within two weeks of the final sign-off.

After receiving your qualification, we'll guide you through the next steps, including joining an accreditation scheme, choosing any equipment you may need and preparing to start your career as a qualified Energy Assessor. Our support continues even after you've qualified, so you'll always have someone to turn to if you need advice or guidance.
