Course Information
The Level 1 Plumbing course is designed for learners who are new to plumbing and want to gain a basic understanding of the industry. The course introduces essential plumbing skills, tools, and techniques in a supportive, hands-on learning environment. It is ideal for those considering a future career in plumbing or building services.
You will learn the basics of plumbing systems, including pipework, fittings, and common tools used in the trade. The course covers health and safety in a workshop environment, basic plumbing installations, and an introduction to heating systems. You will also develop employability skills such as teamwork, communication, and time management.
The course is delivered through a combination of classroom-based lessons and practical workshop sessions. Learners will take part in demonstrations, hands-on tasks, and group activities to build confidence and skills. Teaching is delivered by experienced tutors with industry knowledge.
Learners should have an interest in plumbing or construction and a willingness to learn practical skills. Grade 3 required in English and Maths.
Assessment is mainly practical and based on coursework completed throughout the course. You will also complete short written tasks and knowledge checks to support your practical work. There are no formal exams at Level 1.

Learners will train in fully equipped plumbing workshops that reflect real working environments. Facilities include industry-standard tools, materials, and equipment to support practical learning and skill development.
