Qualification:

This single unit qualification has been developed to provide individuals, working within an automotive repair and servicing environment, with the required skills and knowledge required to meet the European Union fluorinated greenhouse gas F-gas regulations EC 842/2006 and the later Annex EC 307/2008 which came into force on 4th July 2010.

Achievement of this qualification meets the minimum requirements for a Mobile Air Conditioning MAC technician to legally recover automotive refrigerant from light vehicles and car derived vans.

*Please note that this qualification does not meet the requirements of a technician working with Cargo Refrigerant.

There are no specific academic or vocational achievement requirements to register on this qualification. However, a basic knowledge of the operation of automotive air conditioning systems and the environmental regulations surrounding fluorinated greenhouse gas refrigerants would be an advantage.
