1st year exams

[Russ79]

Hi,

I've been in to my loacal collage to discuss the options for me, the tutor has told me because of my building experience to date they will let Go straight in at year 2 but have to still sit year 1 exams. Which I am very happy with. I will be doing 3-4 days a week with a plumbing company as well.
now I've got home I'm second guessing my discussion, will I be able to pass the first year exams? ( with only diy plumbing skills and from my work as site agent over seeing the job)
i have gone for a proper college course not the short cut 6week ones, which will be better in the long run.
could any one give me more insight in to year one work and exams please?
and any up to date literature that will apply to courses which I can buy..
thanks

What course number are you subscribing to?

I believe it is this one
Plumbing and Heating Level 2 Apprenticeship (A30046-A1A)
But I haven't signed up at the moment, got to speak to my new employer next week to get his take on it.
Just wanted to get an idea what the first year is about.

Wont be first year mate it will be the level one. They usually bypass and go straight to NVQ level 2. Usually a two year term to complete. Then another two years for level 3 including gas option if required
