Why learn with us?
Learning
Experience the next generation of online learning, blended with practical training carried out at a fully equipped training centre.
Tutors
The experienced, patient and friendly tutors will share their knowledge and teach you the necessary skills to pass your exams at a pace that suits you.
On-site training
Employers want to see that you have hands-on experience which was carried out on-site. Modern training providers ensure you receive NVQ training & not just a technical certificate.
Qualifications
Certification is key in this sector – you have to have the correct qualification to gain employment. All courses are fully accredited from institutions such as City & Guilds, ACS and to NVQ Level 2/Level 3 standards. We take you from a novice to be fully qualified and able to work in your chosen trade.
Flexible
All the courses are designed to be flexible (full or part-time) which allows you to fit the course around your current work or family commitments. The training centres are open weekdays and weekends, so you book a time that is suitable to you to attend.
Price
The courses are competitively priced with no hidden costs. There are also payment options available to help spread the cost of course so it becomes easier for you to start the course as soon as possible.
Who are we?
For over 10 years we have helped people like you to discover their potential and start a new career in the trades industry. If you want to change your career due it being too low paid or no career progression or you are recently unemployed then we can help you kick start your new career.
There are many websites that offer many different trades courses, some short, some long and some with out of date courses.
We keep things simple. We want you to choose the right course and offer you not just the technical certificate but can also offer the important vocational NVQ.
An NVQ is the on-site training that employers want. You will go from novice to being fully qualified and employable.
Right now, there is a skills shortage in the UK for trades people. If you look at any job board such as indeed.co.uk you will see thousands of jobs vacancies for each trade. Employers need qualified trades people to fill this gap.
If you are not sure which trades career is most suitable for you then a qualified course adviser will help you choose. Please contacted us on our ‘Get in Touch’ page.
Opportunities in Trades
The trade industries will be in demand for years. Currently the demand for qualified trades people outweigh the supply, so there is a real skills shortage.
There are many reports that explain that now and, in the future, there will be a huge demand for qualified trades people in all the plumbing, electrical, gas engineer, renewable engineer & welding sectors.
The reasons for the skills shortage can include:
- The demand for new homes to be built to house the growing population
- New renewable technologies (such as solar panels& smart meters) that required newly skilled trades people to install and maintain
- Many trades people are now at the end of their careers and retiring
Learning a skilled trade can mean you have a job for life and the potential to earn a high salary. You can also be your own boss & become self-employed, so you have the freedom to choose how many days and hours you work.
