God, there's more money in teaching plumbing these days than working in the industry as a plumber.....sounds like the old driving instructor training situatuion that went on a few years ago.

Loads of people im on an NVQ plumbing course at a COLLEGE dont have jobs yet. My course is 90% funded by the government, only cost £2000 for both 6129 and 6082 plus automatic entry on to NVQ3.

The college are helping guys with finding work placements and you have that safe feeling of not bein fleeced.
