Non Domestic Energy Assessor L4 Training

Since October 1st 2008, all non-domestic properties put up for either sale or rent within the U.K. require an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).

The EPC provides an overview of the building’s energy performance and helps owners and occupiers make their buildings more energy efficient.

Non-domestic buildings have been split into various level of complexity. The Level 4 Diploma will enable you to complete EPCs on all buildings without “frequently occurring characteristics. This encompassed approximately 25% of the commercial market.

An insight into the Qualification

In order to be able to complete L4 EPCs, candidates need to complete the ABBE L4 Diploma in Non-Domestic Energy Assessment (DEA L3). The qualification is comprised of a mix of classroom and distance learning elements, and will ensure that trainees have complied with each of the elements of the National Occupation Standards (NOS) for Non-Domestic Energy Assessment at L4.

The classroom element of the training course lasts an initial two days. The two days will focus solely on the complex heating systems encountered within Level 4 non-domestic buildings.

Once candidates have completed the classroom training days, there are two assessment criteria that need to be completed:

  • Pass an exam based upon the NDEA L4 course syllabus.
  • Complete a portfolio of 3 EPCs on a range of L4 non-domestic properties.

Once candidates have passed the exam and completed the portfolio, they will be awarded the qualification and be ready to practice as an accredited L4 non-domestic energy assessor.
