Diamond Training Course (Now Closed)

[PGM Tiling Solutions]

First impressions of the Training facility at Diamond are of a quality centre and this impression remains the same throughout the duration of the course. The centre is spacious enough to enable every trainee to have a bay to themselves and also meant that we rotated through the numerous training bays.

This ensures that you are always facing a new challenge with regards to setting out in the kitchens and bathrooms for both walls and floors in all tile patterns/formats. The workshop is well equipped with an abundance of wet and dry cutters as well as a toolkit for each trainee containing the basic hand tools. The training and advice given is also first class and the instructor, Sam, explains things in the simplest form ensuring that everyone has fully understood what he is teaching. The structure of the course progresses in a logical manner proceeding at a good pace.

I was surprised how much was learnt and covered in a 4 week period and wish I had the time to carry on and complete the 6 week course. The advice on business set up was also excellent with external agencies providing guidance and information, backing up what Sam discusses throughout the duration of the course. Advice on pricing, tools, advertising and marketing along with the tiling training ensured that by the end of my course I would have no hesitation in going and completing a job from quoting through to the finish. This advice is also extended once the course has finished where the centre are just a phone call or email away.


To summarise, I would highly recommend Diamond Training Centre to anyone looking to make a start in the Wall and Floor Tiling trade.

Thank you to all at Diamond

I also reccomend Diamond for the training, Thanks Sam:hurray: and sorry for all the cursing.

The things i would say is the first few days you might seem a bit lost, i think your work could be checked more as your not sure if your doing things correctly or not:incazzato:.
Half hour break would be plenty for the whole day and then you could keep working away. I think you should be able to decide if you want to do class on a friday or if you want to work in workshop.
In general the training was very Good and you do learn alot in the time you are there.

One thing I would say is if you are being booked in for accomodation get the phone number of where your supposed to be staying and ring them to make sure you are booked in for the specified amount of time and also ensure you have your own transport to Diamond everyday or you could be left waiting.

If anybody is booking a course here or in another training centre then i would say 2 weeks is the minimum you should aim for, its harder than you think, i would say 4 weeks would be ideal and of course 6 is great if you can afford it.
