hi guys
i'm at btsc manchester, and it states very clearly in my legally binding contract with them that after full qualification i will receive a full time permanent job within 30 days or they will refund all payments i make which for the lot will be about 8 k, i call this putting their money where their mouth is!
there is no catch!!!!!!!!!!!!
also there are posters up all over the centre about the success rate of placing the graduates from chessington (no-one has graduated at m/cr yet cos it only opened a couple of months ago) which is 99 percent success. which means only 1 percent of all graduates have not been placed in a job - but they have got their cash back.
hope this helps to shatter a few of the popular myths about what is undoubtedly the best place to learn your new trade. i'm on module 3 and i'm loving every minute of it. i honestly can't fault any aspect of the training here. the max class size is 12 ensuring quality instruction from your trainer, there is no sharing of tools and no shortage of copper pipe, fittings etc. the instructors seem to have a genuine passion for teaching and have on average 20 years experience as master tradesmen.
The companies that are providing the employment are all displayed on a big map in the reception area for all to see, it is also these companies that provide 6-8 weeks placement for your nvq assessments. this is also paid work and i was told to expect between 60 and a ton a day for this.
every aspect is clearly laid out in your contract. i can't envisage any kind of problem here and would reccomend this place to anyone.
regards
kay-jay
