Level 3 Award in Domestic Energy Assessment (Part-Time)

Course Overview

All residential properties in the UK require an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) before being marketed for sale or let. A Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) is a qualified individual who can undertake energy calculations for residential properties in order to generate these EPCs.

This course is designed to provide individuals with the skills and knowledge required to assess and evaluate the energy performance of existing domestic buildings. It focuses on assessing the energy efficiency and sustainability aspects of residential properties and identifying opportunities for improvement.
