A starting point for your session

What would you like to get better at?

Choose a card to answer guided questions about that area. Build your priorities, then send your summary to Kate on WhatsApp so we can plan your time with Derek.

Boiler fault finding

Build a logical diagnostic sequence, choose useful checks and understand what the readings tell you. Bring a particular fault or situation you keep getting stuck on.

Electrical controls and testing

Develop your understanding of controls and wiring diagrams, safe meter use and component testing as part of a structured fault-finding approach.

Build my training plan

Servicing and practical confidence

Work through an appliance’s instructions, servicing sequence and relevant checks with time to ask questions and practise.

Returning to work or preparing for ACS

Refresh areas you haven’t used for a while, revisit particular knowledge gaps or plan focused revision before assessment.

Not sure how to describe what you need?

For a fault-finding session, a useful starting message might be:

“I can carry out routine servicing, but I lose confidence when a boiler won’t fire. I’d like help deciding what to test first and understanding the readings.”

Tell us your experience, what you want to improve, any particular appliance or fault, and who will be attending. Choose a topic card above, or use the broader skills check below if you are unsure where to start.

Free one-to-one helper

Not sure what you need help with?

That’s completely normal, especially if you have been away from the industry or have not used certain skills for a while. Answer a few short questions and we’ll suggest the areas that may be most useful to cover during a one-to-one session with Derek.

  • About 3–5 minutes
  • No pass or fail
  • No account needed

One focused day

Preparing for ACS? You can still add focused support.

These options are additional one-to-one refresher days before an ACS assessment. For other tailored or shared sessions, we’ll agree the scope and price with you.

Your session, your priorities

Let’s agree what will be most useful.

You don’t need to write a course syllabus. Tell us what you’re finding difficult and we’ll help turn it into a practical plan. We’ll agree the focus, length, date and price before you book. If two of you want to attend together, tell us what each of you wants to work on.
