I was talking to some one today about going too college to do a plumbing course. And they said there “ mate” paid £3000 for a course and he became a plumber in a week. Set up on his own after a week lol poor customers
 
Sorry to hear that.
He will struggle, as will his poor customers.
Unfortunately you don't even need a 3k course to call yourself a "plumber" in the UK.
Sad state of affairs.
 
Yep but no on-site experience so a steep learning curve / many many hurdles
