Certification & Licence Time
Join the industry’s largest MHCLG (Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government) authorised DEA scheme and get a licence to collect domestic property data, generate Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), and comply with the Reduced Data Standard Assessment Procedure (RdSAP).
After successful completion of your portfolio, which can be achieved in as little as a week, you will have the knowledge you need to become a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor and issue EPC reports.
The fast-track DEA online course provides successful candidates with the City & Guilds Level 3 Certificate in Domestic Energy Assessment, allowing them to become an EPC Assessor for existing homes.
Course Options
We offer the DEA course in two formats. Both include the same three days of training with a live tutor.
On the 5-day course, Days 4 and 5 are spent completing your portfolio with you, so it can be submitted and your certificate claimed the following week.
- DEA 3 Days Online: £890 + VAT
- DEA 5 Days Online with Portfolio: £1,390 + VAT
How does the online class work with a live trainer?
The course is delivered with live trainer support and practical guidance throughout the programme so learners can build confidence in the assessment and reporting process.
