Some good news! The Warm Homes Skills Programme (WHSP) has confirmed an extension to the programme deadlines, meaning we are now able to offer additional time for learners to complete selected qualifications fully funded. The two qualifications this applies to are listed below,
Many learners previously expressed an interest in the qualifications below but were unable to commit due to the very short completion timescales. With this extension, Synergy Training Centre are pleased to be able to reopen these opportunities.
Fully Funded Qualifications Available
The WHSP funding is available to those who reside, or complete the majority of their work, in England.
You can now enrol on one or both of the following OFQUAL-regulated qualifications at no cost:
- ABBE Level 3 Award in Introduction to Domestic Retrofit
- GQA Level 2 Award in Awareness of the Principles of Non-Domestic Retrofit and PAS 2038
Both qualifications are delivered through self-paced online learning and are each assessed by a single assignment, making them ideal for Continuing Professional Development (CPD). It is anticipated that each qualification can be completed in approximately 8–10 hours.
Important Dates
To secure a funded place:
- Registration (onboarding) must be completed by 31st July 2026.
- All learning and assessment must be completed by 16th September 2026.
There are limited places remaining and these will be allocated on a first come, first served basis, subject to funding availability.
