The Heat Pump Association (HPA) has released Q2 2024 data showing a sustained increase in heat pump training qualifications in the UK. Over 2,400 individuals completed heat pump qualifications in Q2 2024, bringing the total for the year to 4,875.
This represents a 14% increase compared to the first half of 2023 and a notable 37% rise from Q2 2023 to Q2 2024.
Laura Thomas, Chair of the HPA Training Working Group, stated, “The steady growth in people successfully completing heat pump training courses reflects the increasing recognition and value given to heat pumps as a key technology in the UK’s transition to net zero. The rise in qualified individuals year on year solidifies the efforts of training providers to meet the demand of upskilling the workforce to support the growing market.”
The HPA is committed to developing a skilled workforce to accelerate heat pump installations in the UK. With demand for training continuing to rise, the HPA will collaborate with training providers, stakeholders, and policymakers to ensure effective support and training standards.
