Please inform others if you have had a good or bad experience during your plumbing training schemes.

Hi
I am 5 weeks into a 10 week course with a class of 30, the main problem so far is its not what it said on the tin and everybody has the same view. I will keep you informed how things go on the next five weeks, but anybody looking at doing one of these fast track courses please read everything on the web sites not just the home page (the very small print)and then if you can speak to people who are on the course that you want to go on for there feedback as i should have done.
This is not the first fast track course i have done as i have done an NVQ 2 tiling course and can recommend that to anybody as it has given me the confidence needed to go out and work and gain experiance.

If there is any local people (west yorkshire) who have just got into the industry or who are looking to do as i am doing feel free to get in touch for a chat.

Hi
One more week into the course and leaving aside the problems early on we are two weeks into the workshop and the level of tuition is first class. 4 tutors and every one with there own advice and i must say if you want to learn these guys will teach you all they know. After such a turnaround i cant understand how some people will spend 6 grand on a course and not attend more than 2 days a week when this is the time when you realy learn.

Will post a message next week to report on progress if anybody is interested?

Cheers
