This course covers all the topics to prepare you for OFTEC's 101, 105E and 600A qualifications.

The training is aimed at candidates who have little or no experience with oil and are considering undertaking OFTEC qualifications in the future. This is an entry level certificate which is designed to give the candidate an introduction to oil systems and installations.

The OFTEC 50 Oil Fired Introductory course is a practical course designed for operatives lacking or with no experience of domestic oil installations and suits anyone wishing to carry out work on domestic oil-fired installations who has no previous experience or qualifications.
