So after working for a year ive decided i need to really think about my future and what career path i want to take.

Im thinking of becoming a plumber, i was advised a couple of years ago by most of my family but ignored them as i had other interests at the time. Now i realise that its a very rewarding career and something i think i will be good at.

I really am new to this and have no idea where to begin. After reading a few threads on here ive come across a lot of courses such as t4ts which sounds good but has also been given a lot of negative reviews. Should i take a course like this or go through college?
 
Well you pretty much just missed enrollment for college mate. but your local college MAYBE enrolling late people. So i would give them a call and try and do your City and guilds plumbing technical certificate 6129
 
Lol, try and do my what? sounds like theres so many qualifications i need to work my way through. I know ive just missed college enrolment, should have thought of this last month! Maybe work for another year and begin when im 21, just havent got £5k+ to spend on a course which doesnt seem to last long, want to make sure i do it the best way

Best way is college

Thanks for the reply, ive just missed enrollment for the college this year so think im going to continue working and enroll next year, will still be 21, plenty of time ahead of me.
 
Dont waste your time thinking you have missed it, im currently in college and people are dropping out of the classes so there is still places left. Just give them a call and see for yourself.
