Mr Rhodes has worked within the renewables industry since 2008 when he worked as a training officer and helped develop and launch the first level 3 national qualification award heat pump course within the UK – and later became training manager. In 2012 he started his own renewables business as a training provider and MCS Consultant before in 2015 working as a project manager for heat pump installations.

“We’re aiming to be a bit different to your run of the mill training set ups,” says Steve Rhodes. “The venue is perfect for this training – starting with free parking and lunch and refreshments included. But more importantly the exam fees are included in the cost of the course – there is no additional payment required, and all learning materials are included in the course fee. We have three fully operational air source heat pumps installed in the centre including a split system, so installers can get to grips with the real thing – not just look at pictures with arrows. It’s hands on training in a dedicated centre that is light and comfortable and air conditioned if required.”

Unitherm Heating Systems will be offering a selection of courses at its Exeter training centre with immediate effect.
