Hi,

At Construction Skills College we offer an introduction to plumbing course that is aimed at people with little or no experience at all. We will also be offering an NVQ Diploma in 2013. Please feel free to visit our centre whilst we have a course running to talk with students or visit our website at www.tradeteacher.co.uk

We do not promise to make you a plumber in 10 days, nor will we send a course advisor to visit you to discuss the content. What we will offer you though is genuine advice and guidance on the correct course for you (we are MATRIX accredited for this), deliver an introduction to plumbing course of which the tutors are experienced tradespeople and we will give you full support after completing your course.

Our 10 day courses are an ideal first step into the industry as they teach you the practical skills (soldering, pipe bending etc) and give you a basic understanding of the theory relating to what you cover. From this you can then progress into further training or gain experience working with a plumber.

Below are recent comments that we have received relating to our courses.


Hi David , I have been working in partnership with a friend since leaving construction skills in Feb this year, he has been trading for many years but needed to have someone else to help out, we fit bathrooms and kitchens and do general property maintenance. We are very busy and have are fortunate to have plenty of work all through recommendation. I am using my plumbing skills almost everyday and cannot believe how much I learnt in such a short space of time. I completed a two week course tutored by Stephen Higgins, what a top guy he was and a fantastic tutor. I am not sure I could have learned quite so much had it not been for his teaching methods, lots of little stories and words of wisdom based on his experiences as a time spent plumber.
I researched many training facilities before choosing yours and even though it was a four hour drive and two weeks away from my wife and three children I felt construction skills college was the best one.
Thank you all very much :) Mr Harling



hi david sorry i have not replied sooner but i have been busy. I work for a company fitting disabled bath rooms for the councils. the job involves removing old bath room suites. fitting new wc, wash basin, shower units. We have to move central heating rads repipe hot and cold water supplies. fit wc in bath rooms were a bath dose not have one. The training you gave was invaluable. I was one of the oldest trainees on the course. It was a great 2 weeks i learned a lot and have put this into very good use.i still go back to my notes to check for something i am not sure of. I now earn a very good living and have job satisfaction. I would recommend your training to everyone who is willing to learn and listen. Age does not come in to it as long as you but willing to put a lot of effort in to it.thanks for the training and the opportunity to improve my life.

Thank you for enquiring as to my future, the courses I attended were of a top quality level. I have since completed various jobs for friends and family including boarding and plastering a conservatory, also a complete bathroom remodel, including plumbing and plastering. I have recently secured employment with a college as a tutor, therefore i will not be using the qualifications full time, i do however wish to continue to gain experience and complete any jobs for friends and family. Please pass my regards on to the guys, once again a top level course where you do learn a useful trade. Mr Rooke who attended a course in 2012 after leaving the armed forces.
