This 6 week Plastering course will provide you with in depth training to cover several areas of essential plastering. You will be consistently assessed by our qualified Plastering instructors. This course has been put together specifically to provide you with the skills that we think you will need to source work and continue working. A great deal of thought has gone in to developing this training programme as we feel at Able Skills that some of the qualifications that are available, simply do not meet the requirements of the industry or the requirements of the student.
This 6 week of hands-on plastering training is designed to build your skills gradually until various aspects of plastering becomes second nature and at this Centre where ‘reality’ is important, this is easily achieved.
The course is designed to build your skills gradually by providing training on smaller plastering work and building to the more complex areas as the course progresses.
The areas in which you will be trained on are:
Plasterboard and skim a ceiling
Direct bond and skim with plaster
Plasterboard and skim patch repair
Plasterboard, float and set patch repair
Prepare and plaster ceiling
Applying a plain rendering and finish with a float
This 6 weeks of hands on reality training will cover all of the basic and essential skills that any Plasterer will need in order to provide a competent service to any potential customer.
This course can be covered over a period to suit you and you can train for 6 consecutive weeks, divide your weeks up or even incorporate some weekend training if you have ongoing weekly commitments. At Able Skills we aim to make our qualifications as accessible as is possible and additionally we offer a payment plan which, following a deposit, is on an interest free pay as you train basis.
We are aware that every student that attends Able Skills learns at a different pace; if you find that you have completed all tasks in less than the 6 weeks allocated, we have additional learning programmes available, making this an even more comprehensive and rewarding training programme.
This is a hands-on, practical plastering course and you will be involved at every stage and will be participating throughout. It is therefore recommended you bring suitable clothing and for your own safety, steel capped footwear is essential.
