Close Move

After a life in the Armed Forces, a multitude of new opportunities are out there to be grasped. As a result of the chronic shortage of trades people in the UK, there has never been a better time to consider plumbing, plastering, brickwork or tiling as a new career - or at the very least to radically improve your DIY skills.

Construction Training Courses

Skills School Limited is now taking bookings for its unique courses, based in purpose built modern premises near Bradford. These construction training courses are practical and enjoyable courses which offer excellent value for money.

Short Courses in Plumbing, Plastering, Brickwork & Tiling

They are designed to teach you the principles of each trade in the shortest time possible, such as:

  • PLUMBING - Fitting a bathroom suite, moving radiators & plumbing in a washing machine. You will also gain a working knowledge of central heating systems.
  • PLASTERING - Plasterboarding a ceiling, external rendering, dot & dab walls and window openings, skimming and over-skimming different surfaces.
  • BRICKWORK - Setting out buildings, interpreting plans, building a small extension laying bricks & blocks and gaining an understanding of different materials and tools.
  • TILING - Wall and floor tiling for kitchens and bathrooms, remedial work, under-floor heating, setting out, preparation and finishing.

Accredited NVQ Centre - these professional construction training courses and other specialist training sessions all take place under one roof at our accredited NVQ training centre.

Don't believe it's possible in just 4 days? You'll be amazed how much you can learn from these professionally designed, practical courses. Even after a few hours, our trainees find their confidence lifting as they try out new techniques for themselves. Although intensive, these construction training courses are designed to be fun and hands-on, with a low student to staff ratio.

We believe that you will learn more quickly by enjoying your time spent with us, trying out both traditional and modern techniques for yourself, learning a few "tricks of the trade" and building up knowledge and confidence as the course progresses.

As well as our standard format, we also regularly operate refresher courses, special group training sessions and other bespoke construction training courses.

The course manager is City & Guilds qualified with over 12 years experience as NVQ assessor at one of Britain's most prestigious building colleges, so you can be assured of the best training possible. In addition, all courses are taken by highly experienced, City & Guilds qualified specialists with over 20 years experience, who adopt a hands-on approach rather than merely lecturing. This technique, we find, is a far more effective means of absorbing facts and skills. We have run a number of specialist courses for large organisations, council's and other funded organisations.

Our courses also provide trainees with Witness Testimony towards NVQ, something no other construction training organisation in the UK can offer on these types of training courses. We can also offer expert guidance and advice for those people who wish to follow on with full qualifications.

So, whether you are seeking a change in career after serving in the Armed Forces or wishing to add to your trade skills, please contact us.
