Hi all,
Just joined the forum today and have been reading some very interesting and needed posts and threads.
I am going to Cardiff and Vale college tomorrow for an interview with a view to start a plumbing course next year to start in September. I have applied for plumbing skills full time but I think this may be the wrong course. I have no previous skills regarding plumbing so I'm guessing I will have to start from Level 1 then progress to level 2 then Level 3 and also to become fully qualified I need to work and get practical experience on the job? This shouldn't be a problem though as I have a friend who has his own business and has said that he should be able to let me work with him.
I am going to do a full time course where I will be in college for no more than 20 hours a week day times. I have work which is mostly evenings anyway so it's not a problem with regards to an income whilst in college. I know I will be busy and working hard for everything but I'm used to it as I am doing 3 jobs now 2 self employed and the other employed. You don't get anywhere sitting on the sofa lol!
Reason for my post is there are so many courses out there and I just want to know the right progression to become a plumber?
Thanks for reading and help will be greatly appreciated.
