New EU F-Gas legislation (517/2014) replaces the 2006 regulation and comes into force from January 2015.

F-Gas Guidance
Guidance for users, producers and traders

Important note: training and certification in the 2014 F-Gas Regulation are based largely on the existing requirements in the 2006 Regulation.

Existing qualifications remain valid including the IMI Level 3 Award in Automotive Refrigerant Handling.

Completion of the IMI Awards’ Automotive Refrigerant Handling qualification means technicians will already have achieved the Refrigerant Handling unit (AC1) and therefore two credits towards this qualification.

Candidates are required to sit an online examination and carry out a practical skills assessment at the end of the course.
