Weekend Plumbing Course Still Available

We still have some places available for this coming weekend for our 4 day weekend plumbing courses.

On the first weekend you will cover the basics of using plumbing tools, cutting and jointing pipe by compression joints, soldering, push-fit and also pipe bending.

You will also fit a full 3 piece bathroom suite and plumb it in up-to working pressure with copper pipe. If you have any leaks you will also fix them! Tips, tricks and fault finding all included in this very hands on practical training course.

Weekend plumbing course

On the second weekend of the weekend plumbing course you will cover the installation and removal of radiators, fitting radiator valves and plumbing the radiators up to pressure. A discussion on the principles of the radiator system and fault finding etc. Once the radiators are full and up-to pressure you will cover radiator removal and replacement, again all this is done in your own bay on the course and up-to pressure to imitate your home scenario.

Three successful Carpentry NVQ’s today

We had three experienced carpenters successfully complete their Site Carpentry NVQ‘s today at YTA and we are happy to say that they all passed the 6 hour practical assessment. The Site Carpentry NVQ level 2 Diploma is gained through the EWPA (Experienced Worker Practical Assessment) if you have a minimum of 5 years experience working as Site Carpenter. We are so glad to say that we are off to a flying start following the lockdown period and all three achieved the 1 day NVQ level 2 practical assessment.

We have some new working practices in place which can be found on our COVID-19 PAGE and all went to plan, face-masks provided, social distancing and hand sanitiser stations around the centre all making the assessment process safe.

Are you an experienced Carpenter / Joiner of 5 or more years? then you can spend 1 day at our NOCN Cskills approved NVQ Centre in Yorkshire completing the wood occupations site carpentry NVQ level 2 EWPA (Experienced Worker Practical Assessment). We run this assessment on Saturday’s 7:30am until approx 4pm depending on your time. We run the assessment at our training centre in Bradford, West Yorkshire. The 1 day NVQ level 2 through EWPA costs £900 including vat, (£750 excl vat).

Successful Carpentry NVQ

How do we assess during COVID-19 and keep social distancing

We have a very large assessment centre (6500 sq foot) and the EWPA requires the candidate to work on their own in a dedicated assessment area for an allocated amount of time to complete the practical assessment (between 6 and 9 hours depending on which trade). We can easily distance a maximum of 3 assessment areas within the centre 6m apart from each other. The assessor will assess at distance and when required at the end of the assessment, ask you to stand to one side so he can measure and mark your practical assessment.  So the carpentry NVQ level 2 is still running but with no more than 3 candidates per time in the building.

We really can get you your NVQ quickly

What if you need to be earning a wage again even before you’ve completed our carpentry EWPA route? Well, that’s not too much of a drama, either – you simply need to first secure your place and pay your deposit, so that we can get you registered. This will enable you to apply for and gain a temporary card lasting for a maximum of six months until you have completed the EWPA.

Don’t wait any longer to email the YTA team at info@ytatraining.com during COVID-19 lockdown and on 01274 682199, to book your place or to discuss how we can best serve your construction training / assessment requirements. YTA have been delivering successful Carpentry NVQ’s to experienced carpenters for 14 years now.

Plumbing course video review by Josef Faddoul

YTA Plumbing course video review by Josef Faddoul.

Another great plumbing course video review is now available to watch on our YouTube channel! Josef Faddoul completed the 5 day plumbing course in February 2020 and was more than happy with the training and support he received throughout the plumbing course that he immediately booked more courses with YTA.

Whats Covered on the plumbing course:

The 5 day plumbing course will see you working with copper pipe and fixings, plumbing in a bathroom, a small 3 radiator system including thermostatic radiator valves, understanding different heating systems, plumbing in a kitchen sink including waste pipes plus plenty of fault finding and repair work throughout the week.

Thank you for such a great YTA plumbing course review Josef, looking forward to having you back at YTA to complete your other courses.

The YTA team.

Our training centre is a large 6500 sq foot, high ceiling well ventilated area with individual training bays AND tools per person.

5 star reviews for 2 day plastering & 2 day worktop fitting

Two recent 5 star reviews following the completion of the 2 day plastering course and 2 day worktop fitting course.

Tim Falkner – 2 day plastering skimming course

I did the 2 day skimming course. By the first day had skimmed a wall and ceiling. Dave the instructor was very easy to work with teaching me the right techniques to skim. Highly recommend

Anonymous – 2 day worktop fitting course

I have just recently done the 2 day kitchen worktop course and I must say the guy Laurence who was my tutor was excellent he was looking after me and several joiners all at once . But I came with with what I needed and would highly recommend .

 

2 day plastering and worktop fitting course reviews
2 day plastering and worktop fitting course reviews

 

Course Descriptions:

The 2 day Plastering Course is £180 including vat and available most weeks on any 2 consecutive days. It will be 2 days of solid graft with 100% focus on achieving a smooth finish plastered wall. There’ll be no business start up or peripherals just all day mixing and plastering.

The aim of the 2 day worktop course will be to fit a worktop professionally. The course is £250 and you will use a router and worktop jig to create the worktop ‘masons mitre’ fitment into a corner area. You will also cut out for a kitchen sink and fit the kitchen sink.

  • You will use tools such as:
  • Router
  • Worktop Jig
  • Circular saw
  • Jigsaw
  • Square
  • Clamps
  • And other joiners tools to create a professional finish.

You will use professional kitchen fitting tools form jig saws, circular saws and routers. You will be shown every aspect of setting up each tool along with handy tips along the way on how to use the tools for different materials.

 

To book on the next available 2 day plastering course or 2 day worktop course you can either check the available dates on the website or call the centre on 01274682199 to book. YTA is based in Bradford, West Yorkshire and is not too far from Leeds. We are ideally located  near to the M62 motorway Junction 26.

I'll be honest when I saw the advertisement and checked the place on google, I said another course to waste time, and contrary to having judged the place, the course was above my expectations, very practical, excellent teaching, I recommend 100 % five stars.

As an unskilled landlord I felt a little exposed due to the lack of plumbers out there doing small jobs, leaking sinks, new toilet inlets etc etc. I contacted YTA to bridge that gap a bit. After 5 days, I actually feel far more comfortable and I am actually going to tackle installing a bathroom. Very good, hands on training. Can be difficult to hear whats going on at times due to all trade training going on in the same room but I would definitely recommend them. I am actually going to do joinery, kitchen fitting and plastering too within the next 12 months.

Just finished the 5 day kitchen fitting course with Paul. I had very limited skills prior to this but have learnt loads and now feel totally competent to fully fit out my mums kitchen and utility room myself. Great course with very experienced tutor. Highly recommended. I'm going to do the plumbing course next. Thanks Paul and YTA.

Can't rate this place enough. I've done plumbing, plastering, and am about to finish a joinery course. The instructors are all very skilled in their respective trades and the class sizes are small enough that you have time to go at your own pace and really learn.All the instructors are very approachable and happy to answer questions, however stupid I thought they might sound.If you're considering a course here my advice is to do it. I started with virtually no practical skill at all and after each course I'm now confident that I can put these skills to good use in my house, and what I could produce by the end of each course is much better than what I've seen some tradesmen produce. You'll be pleasantly surprised by how much you'll learn at this place, even with no prior experience.

Finished my 10 day tiling course with Gary and it was superb.Considering I'd never laid a tile prior to starting the course and then to be tiling by 10am the morning is amazing and it's a credit to him, he has confidence in the people he's training even if they don't haha. Without thinking you just do it, he guides you along swimmingly.Gary, without saying it, recognises your pace and how confident or not you are and he goes with YOUR flow which I feel is correct.

I attended a 5 day plastering course .All the instructors are great and easy to get on with. Dave the plastering instructor is a top lad .Nothing to much trouble and really helpful.I’ve already started on my own house and the course definitely gave me the basics I needed to point me in the right direction.I would recommend Dave and all the staff to anyone thinking about having a go.I’m 61 served my time as a bricklayer straight from school but I wish I’d given plastering a shot years ago.Best thing I’ve done in a long time.Also ‘Bradford Digs’ great little place to stay.Cheers to all…Andy.
