Energy Performance Certificate / Low Carbon Consultant Design Training
Accreditation through the Approval of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL) route requires that all applicants have a minimum of 2 years out of the last 5 in building services and energy assessment type work.
By completing this pre-APEL-form your eligibility to progress through the APEL application route will be confirmed but not guaranteed. You may wish to avoid incurring costs before being confirmed as eligible for the APEL application route.
If you need help to identify whether or not you are likely to be admitted under the APEL route please call the CIBSE Certification team on 020 8675 5211.
All applicants must be able to demonstrate that they can fulfil 100% of the National Occupational Standard (NOS) before they can become registered as an energy assessor. The CIBSE Energy Centre has more detailed information on what is required.
If you do not possess the appropriate skills/experience, you will not be permitted to make an APEL application. However, you may still become an energy assessor through the qualitification route.
Before booking a course please pay particular attention to the information below regarding preparation and the levels of qualifications and experience required to pass the training. The course is intensive and requires a high level of prior knowledge.
