PAT Testing Training in Southampton

High quality, professional training, from the industry leaders in PAT Testing Training. Tim James has been involved in the business of PAT Testing for over 30 years, and teaching people to carry out PAT Testing since the 1990s. You'll be learning from an expert in the industry!

We run regular training courses the Hilton Utilita Bowl in Southampton - located 20 minutes from Southampton city centre. The venue is easy to get to by car and free parking is available on site. This Hilton hotel is located at the Utilita Bowl cricket ground - formerly know as the Ageas Bowl.

Our course is certificated - which means you'll get a certificate of competence on completion. There is no exam on the course, but a long practical session throughout the day to ensure everybody learns the required information. We always limit the number of people attending, and our courses often sell out.

We also run PAT Testing courses nearby in Croydon, Brighton and Reading, as well as a range of other venues across the UK.
