At regular times through the year, APICS offer Chimney Sweep training courses at one of two venues across the UK. The courses are designed for both those new to the industry, but also existing APICS sweeps who may wish to gain up-to-date industry knowledge, recommendation and techniques or further improve their skills.

​

They usually meet at the beginning of every other month with a maximum of eight attendees to ensure enough personal attention for all. 

​

The initial three days in the classroom/practical area are then followed up by two further days for work experience by one or two professional sweeps, showing the practical side of day to day sweeping.
