Default Re: Open Question: Can anyone tell me about these fast track plumbing courses?

C & G stated 48000 passed plumbing there courses last year...... courses now 6000 plus , im in my last week of a 10 week course everybody worrying about work as this time next week there will be 30 more plumbers looking for work. look at the forum regards advertising costs for returns so your 6000 is looking more like 12000 if you need van tools advertising and 800 more dollars for site visits to get your NVQ 2 .
what you have to look at from my experiance is the people who run the courses only tell you what you want to hear, this is with any course, and as people say you will be treated with contempt by most people who hate short courses. The one thing you will have over the guy who has been in the trade for 20 years is top info on H&S so your customers will be sure that you have the info you need to work as the law requires and after spending that sort of cash outlay hopefully you will prove all the people who have no faith in intensive courses that you can do a good job at a good price, as i will be trying to do.
