Domestic Energy Assessor training
Only energy assessors who are members of a Government approved accreditation scheme, such as Elmhurst, may produce legally valid EPCs. In order to join an accreditation scheme candidates must demonstrate, amongst other things, that they are appropriately trained and qualified. This will require candidates to complete an approved Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) qualification, or equivalent.
At Elmhurst we pride ourselves in providing professional and cost effective training. We currently provide appropriate training and qualification route for new entrants wishing to practise as a DEA.
