Train at Europe’s largest state-of-the-art building trade training Centres.
BTSC’s approved Centres are without doubt the finest and largest plumber training and electrician training facilities in Europe and have been built at a cost of over £2.5m each. These fully equipped learning environments are the answer to the UK’s historic shortage of properly qualified plumbers and electricians.
The first ‘pilot’ centre opened at Chessington in Surrey in 2005 and since then hundreds of trainees have been successfully trained and placed in good jobs. Each Centre is near a motorway system, and is easily accessible by rail and bus. Additional Centres are planned in Birmingham, Edinburgh and Bristol.
Plumber Training Bays - Each Centre has unique custom-built training areas divided into
12 separate training bays, allowing you your own work space. There are also bench-work
and lead-work areas, as well as air conditioned, hi-tech classrooms, each equipped with a
plasma teaching screen. Some of each training module is spent in a classroom learning
the important theory part of plumbing.
Only basic computer skills are needed, mainly for taking straight forward multiple-choice exams. Our Centres all have a Self-Study Classroom, where extra guidance is available should you need it, as well as a Test Room for exams, an area for the Placement Team and a Break Area with refreshments, TV and internet access. In each centre is a Security Team to ensure you learn your new skills in a safe and secure learning environment.

A sense of humour is another asset in training the UK’s most highly qualified new plumbers and electricians!
