Become a certified plumber in Singapore

To become a certified plumber in Singapore, one must first complete a plumbing course from a recognized institution. There are several institutions in Singapore that offer plumbing courses, such as the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) and the Singapore Plumbing Society (SPS). These courses typically cover topics such as plumbing systems, installation, maintenance, and repair.

After completing the plumbing course, one must then undergo an apprenticeship program. This program typically lasts for three years and involves working under the supervision of a licensed plumber. During this time, the apprentice will gain practical experience in plumbing work and learn how to apply the knowledge gained from the plumbing course.

Once the apprenticeship program is completed, the apprentice can then apply for a plumbing license from the Public Utilities Board (PUB). The PUB is the regulatory body that oversees the plumbing industry in Singapore. To obtain a plumbing license, the applicant must pass a written exam and demonstrate their practical skills in plumbing work.

After obtaining a plumbing license, the plumber can then apply for certification from the Singapore Plumbing Society (SPS). The SPS is a professional organization that represents the plumbing industry in Singapore. Certification from the SPS is a mark of quality and professionalism, and can help plumbers to stand out in a competitive market.
