Let's take a look at some feedback left by our recent students who took on our Introduction to Plumbing course...
Feedback:
"I found the training centre online and the course was great. Good value for money! I now feel confident enough to complete plumbings tasks of my own. Thanks I enjoyed the course and would recommend the centre." - K Cox
"Excellent, I really enjoyed every minute on the course. Now that I've finished this introductory course I feel more confident than ever with the basics of plumbing and plumbing procedures. Really glad I came across Able Skills whilst searching online." - P Neye
"I was going to go to another centre but after looking online this one had really good feedback, the feedback and comments from the previous students were right. The course was very good and covered all that I was expecting and wished to learn. I have progressed well and I'm happy not to carry out minor tasks other than my training." - T Collingbourne
"I didn't look anywhere else as Able Skills seemed very professional and the quality of training and content of the courses seemed good. The course was great and so was the content, really good delivery. Feel very confident in the skills that I have gained from the course and I've progressed very well since the start." - S Herwood
"Perfect, I was busy on the course at all times and the content was well spread out. I knew nothing about plumbing before, sam was very patient and a great instructor!" - D Fowler
"Excellent course and instructor, the course was taught at a good pace and I've learnt everything I expected to learn. I have progressed from a complete beginner at the start of this course and now I feel comfortable carrying out Gas tasks at a good level. I decided on this centre because of the location and the duration of the course, very professional and helpful staff. Overall good experience." - E Woodley
"Precisie, no nonsense approach. The course was well structured and Jim offers to help when required and his insights were great, very knowledgeable guy. I have progressed well and taken away more than I expected from such a short course. My skills have improved considerably. My understanding and confidence has improved. The accomodation was good also, great value for money." - D Mulholland
What will I learn?
This 5-day introductory course will give you a solid understanding of the basics, enough to be able to carry out DIY around the house to a good level. The course will aim to give you confidence in these basics and some close to real world experience. Our Introductory Plumbing course has been recognised by City & Guilds as a comprehensive introduction to domestic plumbing and as such, they have accredited the course with a certificate upon completion outlining that you can carry out the fundamentals to a good standard.
However, if you are seriously considering a career in plumbing then you should be looking at our City & Guilds Level 2 Plumbing course - This 6-week training programme will teach you to become a professional plumber from scratch. You'll be taught through a mix of both classroom-based theory lessons and hands-on practical experience. Our instructors are experts in the trade and will be there to guide you through a range of plumbing skills covering various topics including Electrical principles and processes, Common plumbing processes, Cold water systems, Domestic hot water systems, Sanitation, Central heating systems and Drainage systems.
