Welcome to Ignite Training!
About Ignite Training
Ignite Training is a specialist, independent training provider delivering high-quality apprenticeships in:
Plumbing
Gas Engineering
Renewable Heat Technology
Based in North Tyneside, we operate nationally, with apprentices travelling from across the UK to attend our training centre. That reach is not by accident — it reflects the quality of our provision, our facilities and our growing reputation within the industry.
A Recognised Standard of Quality
Ignite Training was inspected by Ofsted in September 2022 and awarded a ‘Good’ rating.
Inspectors highlighted:
Above-average attendance
Strong achievement rates
High numbers of apprentices achieving distinction at End Point Assessment
These outcomes reflect our structured delivery model, strong employer partnerships and the consistent support provided to every apprentice.
Quality is not a slogan for us — it is measurable.

Our provision continues to grow year on year as more employers choose Ignite Training to develop and strengthen their workforce.
Employers consistently cite:
Industry-standard training facilities
Clear and consistent communication
Structured, high-quality delivery
Exceptional apprentice support
We understand that employers are not simply recruiting apprentices — they are investing in the future of their business. Our role is to ensure that investment delivers.
Specialist Focus. Future Thinking.
Unlike generalist training providers, Ignite specialises in plumbing, heating and gas engineering. This focused approach allows us to:
Invest in specialist equipment
Maintain up-to-date industry knowledge

Adapt quickly to industry changes
We continually review employer feedback, monitor sector developments and research future workforce needs to ensure our apprentices are prepared not just for today’s industry — but for tomorrow’s.
Quality. Belong. Thrive.
Everything we do is built around three core principles:
Quality
High standards of teaching, structured progress reviews and strong achievement outcomes.
Belong
Apprentices are known, supported and valued. Employers are partners, not customers.
