OFTEC’s new registration logos
A new website has been launched to make it easier for technicians to sign up for OFTEC’s competent person registration scheme which now includes Part P, solid fuel and renewables, with biomass to follow soon.

www.joinoftec.com offers all the information covering OFTEC’s expanded range of registration services, plus an online form to make joining as simple as possible.

OFTEC registrations director, Adrian Lightwood, comments: “We are seeing growing demand from our existing registered technicians to expand their businesses to cover other technologies, such as solid fuel and renewables, and they are likely to find it much cheaper to do so through OFTEC. Equally, those thinking of joining OFTEC for the first time will find our prices competitive and our commitment to service unrivalled.

“By providing all the necessary information in one place through an easy to navigate website, joinoftec.com should make the registration process simpler and quicker for everyone.”

OFTEC has also announced a new range of logos to enable businesses to emphasise the heating technologies covered by their registration. The new rectangular logos feature the familiar OFTEC triangle with text that specifies the technology covered.

Adrian Lightwood continues “Feedback from technicians showed that because the existing OFTEC logo is so strongly associated with oil, consumers might not realise that their registration can also cover other heating technologies. This is an important consideration for solid fuel and renewable heating businesses and we hope that the new designs will address the issue.”

Electronic copies of the logos are available free of charge from OFTEC’s marketing team by emailing marketing@oftec.org or can be downloaded from the registered technician’s area of the OFTEC website www.oftec.org.uk
