This course is the only online F-Gas renewal course available on the market and is aimed at refrigeration engineers who are either approaching the end of their five-year certification period for CITB J11 Cat 1 and CITB J12 Cat 2 F-Gas or want to ensure they are up to date with the latest mandatory F-Gas requirements.

Our F-Gas Renewal course includes 'Working with Flammable Refrigerants'. This module highlights the considerations you must make when handling flammable gases, enabling you to get ahead of the upcoming legislative changes as well as your competition.

If you can provide current evidence of F-Gas Cat 1 or F-Gas Cat 2 working on live RACHP systems and your existing F-Gas certificate is valid, you can recertificate online at your own pace*.

Once you have successfully completed the course and passed the online assessment you will be legally entitled to work on stationary RACHP systems within the UK. Both qualifications will be valid for five years and will enable you to renew your F-Gas registration with REFCOM and apply for an ACRIB Refrigerant Handler SKILLcard. 

*You must complete the course and assessment before your certificate expires.

Duration

No longer than five hours for experienced workers.

The timed assessment is one hour and you will receive immediate confirmation of your score and a downloadable certificate if passed.

Taking the online test

We use specialist online proctoring software to verify who is taking the test to prevent plagiarism.

Once your prerequisite documents have passed, you will be able to start the onboarding process. You cannot start the assessment until your onboarding status has been approved.

Please note: once you have completed the verification process it can take up to 4-8 hours to confirm before you can sit the test. Find out more about our online assessment proctoring.
