Level 2 Award in Understanding Domestic Retrofit (UDR)
Overview
The UK retrofit sector continues to be an exciting growth area, a rarity in such uncertain economic times. The Welsh government’s commitment to building a more sustainable economy and creating jobs means there is a lot of support for this promising industry.
Candidates will be enrolled in the NOCN Level 2 Award in Understanding Domestic Retrofit. This is a nationally recognised qualification and a stepping-stone to securing employment in this rapidly growing market. Course learners will gain an understanding of what retrofit is, what retrofit achieves, and how they can have a future in retrofit.
