Non-Domestic Natural Gas Catering
To work with natural gas in a non-domestic catering environment, candidates must obtain the Core qualification CCCN1 or CODC1 (Domestic Changeover) before they can proceed to the qualifications required to install or maintain individual appliances.
Further information on each course can be obtained by clicking on the course list noted on the left.
Access to the courses is not open to everyone; candidates must be qualified or experienced to be classified as either Category 1 or Category 2 if they wish to work towards CCCN1.
Candidates who are New to the Industry without the necessary qualifications can still arrange to work towards entry to CCCN1. Each candidate would be assessed individually and should contact us to discuss their circumstances.
Training is styled as refresher training and is presented at different levels depending on the category of the candidates.
While we would recommend that all candidates make use of the training, candidates may opt to progress direct to the assessment stage without the training. The assessment stage cannot be by-passed as the candidates must be assessed on their knowledge and competence if they are to gain the recognised qualification.
The vast majority of Category 2 Candidates should expect to be required to undertake the training element of the course.
