You do NOT need to undertake the city and guilds 6129 technical certificate if you are already working with / as a Plumber.

If you do not want to take the above, I would suggest that you work alongside a good Plumber for at least a year to gain some experience and then apply for your NVQ L2 once you know what your doing.

Of course the other option is to undertake the tech cert 6129, but this is NOT a must and hands on experience with a compotent Plumber will be more beneficial.

As stated before, the NVQ L2 is a work based assessment by verified assessors who visit you on site. The NVQ L2 is not a course where you learn Plumbing, it is a certificate of compotence that is awarded upon satifactory completion of work based assessments.
