Access training wales??

Dalejones · Mar 27, 2015

Ok I'm working full time and know a lot about plumbing I just want to get my quals but don't have time to spend 2 years in college, then I stumbled accross access training, they have offered me city & guilds (6035) 15 week (weekends only) for £4395 I'm so tempting but the price is abit steap

Does anyone have any experience with access training who could give me the go ahead to take out a loan to pay for the coarse or does anyone suggest anything different? They also offer a extra 2 week coarse to gain nvq level2 for a further £1500? Does anyone think this is overpriced?? Thanks

How did you get on with this? I am in the exact position (employment wise - the part time/weekends suit me perfectly) and have been offered the same price. Researched Access Training - some positive reviews, some not so good. Naturally i'm a bit cautious of handing over £4395

Some of our lads are doing this, costs about £1500. The place has a good rep and give good advice on the way forward. (I don't work for them)

thats way too much, the 6035 isnt really recognised, you need the 6189 full nvq if you were looking to get employed as a plumber and even then you would struggle not being time served. Their prices are ridiculous, they quoted me £5500 to do my gas!

Also you cant get an nvq unless you're working with a plumber to sign your work off
