Plumbers Mate Opportunities??

[WaterTight]

if I cant get into plumbing then I'll just advertise for straight swap bathroom installs, rain water harvesting, gutters,servicing work, new outside taps, stuff like that, just be nice to get the plumbing side too, but who knows?

You know that stuff is actually considered plumbing...

I know it wont, thats why Im on here trying to find any advise I can or ideas on how to get on with a time served plumber to do my nvq 2 on site with them, so I have the full city & guilds level 2 and nvq 2 in plumbing and then start on level 3

 

[fuzzy]

[damowilson]

i cant do level 3 as yet coz I havent got my level 2 which i need so badly! I only got part qualification in the city n guilds level 2. the tutors are top guys, if i ever get my nvq 2 and go onto 3 then I defo be at tameside again

 

[northstar]

the L3 at tameside is over 2 years, some places it is one year.

 

[damowilson]

yeah my mate on the course, he's just done this and nvq 2 this year and starts his level 3 in sept, it is long but worth it in the long run

arrrhhhh - you have a tech cert level 2 (C&G's could mean tech cert or NVQ)

you dont need nvq2 to do the tech cert 3

 

[damowilson]

i could start gas foundation till I got my actual NVQ 2 but then its still trying to find a employer to do that with as well lol
