Why become a BPEC-accredited ACS Centre?

BPEC Gas Nationally Accredited Certification Scheme (ACS) is the industry recognised and mandatory entry route for operatives to become a member of the Gas Safe Register. 

Originally established in 1997, BPEC Certification Ltd oversees the competence assessment of individuals working in the gas industry. 

Accreditation has been gained from United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) as a Certification Body for the Nationally Accredited Certification Scheme for Gas Fitting Operatives (ACS) alongside the Oil Firing Technical Association for the Petroleum Industry Certification Scheme (OFTEC).

As a leading Certification Body, BPEC focuses on providing assessments, and high-level customer service including: 

• Dedicated customer support
• Responsive certification team 
• Excellent Standards of Service for Certificate Turnaround
• Optional “Fast Track” for certification 
• Technical Support 
• Marketing Support 
• Free Annual Internal Verifier Meetings

A Core Domestic Gas Safety learning manual and Appliance Specific Gas Safety Manual, along with supporting PowerPoint presentations are available to accompany any ACS training. These can be purchased though the BPEC Shop. 

Already an ACS centre but not with BPEC? We can make the switch simple. We’ll give you a dedicated BPEC key account manager to help you through the whole process and beyond.
