Can I Complete a Locksmithing Accreditation Instead?

Whilst you can complete a Locksmith accreditation, you would need to fund this yourself. Unfortunately, Enhanced Learning Credits can only be used on qualifications that are ELCAS approved, which accreditations are not. This is why we recommend that the best Locksmith course UK is an ELCAS-approved qualification.
