what NVQ qualifications are they equal to?
how easy or difficult is it to gain work experience for the on-site assessments?
I'm sure there will be tons more questions, but you guys all seem nice.

Hi Aaron
welcome to the forum
College or private? this is down to cost of the amount of time you have
OLCI or BTSC? most go for OLCI but there are others
does C&G tech cert level 2 = 6129? level 3 = 6089? 6129 is level 2 and if im not mistaken 6089 if working for gas.
what NVQ qualifications are they equal to? 6129 is nvq level 2 but you would need to be assest
how easy or difficult is it to gain work experience for the on-site assessments? very difficult to gain work experience unless you have a job in plumbing before you start, if you do the course then look for a job you will find that it is more or less impossable unless you work for a agency at a reduced rate.
