Gas installers invited to free Green Deal workshop

A free taster course is being run by NICEIC, the voluntary regulatory body for the electrical contracting industry, in conjunction with IGEM (Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers) for gas professionals who are looking to get involved with the Green Deal.
The event will give attendees an insight into the opportunities available as a gas operative and how individuals or companies can look to find work.

IGEM's Julie Adcock said: 'Green Deal represents a great opportunity for gas installers as many of the energy saving initiatives are linked to the work they already do. This free, informal event will give people a basic knowledge of what Green Deal is, how it will work and how firms can get involved.'

The event takes place from 6pm on Tuesday 19 March at IGEM House, High Street, Kegworth, Derbyshire DE74 2DA.

To book a free place call Julie Adcock on 01509 678 161 or email Julie@igem.org.uk

Guys, don't waste your time - the Green Deal is dead before it gets started. Something that is aimed at the those in our society who have not got the capital to improve their lot will not be interested in borrowing money set against possible energy savings when they have other more pressing issues to deal with. This is not like the solar or windfarm FiTs where those with money have made loads more at the expense of the masses. These possible Green Deal customers will get nothing other than high interest rates set against questionable savings and a dept that will go with the dwelling. Those that will gain are the advisors and installers and after they have taken their pound of flesh there will be little left for the improvements. The 10K max ain't going to buy a lot.
