The Challenge
The road to becoming an acs accredited gas engineer is a challenging one. Once you finally have your certificates the real challenge for many begins. Without any solo experience, or employment history in gas, gaining a foothold or employment is almost impossible. Like Learning to Drive or Fly, passing your test will not open the doors to work offers. You will need to find a way to develop real life post graduate solo work experience (usually a minimum 2 to 3 years), a professional profile and history in the gas industry to secure the chance of employment. Unfortunately the only way to develop experience is with an employer, but as you will find this is a catch 22 because without the actual experience, employers will give you a wide berth.
