Tiler or Plumber that tanks a wet room?

[Andy Rhodes]

Whos the training provider your usings awarding body because NOCN CSkills level diploma covers tanking in unit 098 preparing background surfaces not so sure about the City & Guilds level 2 without checking, but I know about the one above because I teach it

why not enrol in @Schlüter-Systems Ltd introduction to wetrooms course

 

[Andy Rhodes]

Mikek just been on the website of the company you are using & your tutor should be covering tanking it's in the course criteria.

Hi Andy cheers for research on the course, it's the level 2 NOSN cskills diploma, I have read that tanking wet rooms us covered in the level 3 diploma but they don't offer that.

The training provider is chameleon school of construction, is that unit 098 you mention in the level 2 diploma? Maybe who ever told me wet room installation isn't covered is wrong, hopefully!

Thanks Adey I'll definitely look at that Schluter course along with this one I'm doing

 

[Andy Rhodes]

To my knowledge nobody's offering a level 3 qualification at present because it's to expensive to deliver. looking on there website the tiling a wall unit end test missing also

Go for a manufacturer course. The trouble with most colleges is that they are years behind the actual trade.

I Came off the tools 18 months ago & still fix most weekends so can't be that much of a dinosaur

 

[Mikek1981]

Ah right, what should the end test unit involve? Surely they must deliver all units, or cskills wouldn't issue the qualification?

Hopefully it's a typo and theyve forgot to put it on the website. There is an online test and stuff throughout the course it says on the website it's called evolve or something like that.

Hopefully the level 2 will be enough then, I should be half decent after a years training, they say they get you out doing work experience too so maybe that could lead to employment

The qualification is a 50/50 course you have 7 theory end test & 7 practical timed end test all of which you must pass to gain the qualification ,the course I deliver is 3 days a week for 18 weeks & you must be in on benefits or pay for it yourself,in all its a start up qualification so yes definitely look for other forms of training offered by companies like ardex, bal,schluter,they all offer training .& Remember your never to old to learn m8
