Hi everyone,
I know there have been a few threads on t4ts, however I have recently signed with them and feel that I am a slightly different case to most of their other students. I am currently a self employed sparks and looking to expand my business. My question is wether I can be trained to an adequate standard?
Obviously my reputation is essential to me and I won't be doing any bodges or work I'm unsure of. I feel that as a sparks with 11 years experience, I stand a much better chance than most as I already have a lot of the practical skills needed, a tradesmans approach to the work environment, a working knowledge of building regs, not to mention working alongside plumbers everyday. I even have access to work experience through a plumber I regularly use (though unpaid).
TBH the recognition of the qualifications are not as important to me as being competently able to do the work, as I will never be applying for plumbers jobs. I also understand that this course will not make me a quality plumber overnight as part p electrical courses have shown in my game.
I have so many avenues for plumbing work through my existing customer base, I honestly belieive I could double my yearly turnover, so would love this to work out. I would love to hear other peoples opinions.
Thanks
