We aren’t exactly short of tiling intensive courses here at YTA – indeed, you only need to spend one day with us to undertake a ‘taster’ course in this rewarding trade, while we also offer several options for five days of training to help get you ready for a career in tiling.
In this particular blog post, though, we’re focusing on how much you can get done in 10 days with us – and it turns out to be quite a lot!
Become the proud owner of a Level 1 tiling certificate
If you’re serious about entering tiling as a profession, there are good reasons to embark on a course that will give you a full qualification on successful completion – not least because it will allow you to more easily demonstrate to prospective customers or employers your competence in the trade.
The qualification in question that we give you the opportunity to earn is the NOCN Cskills 10-day Level 1 Certificate in Wall and Floor Tiling. Achieving it depends on you passing four Level 1 units focused on health and safety in construction trades, effective communication in construction trades, wall tiling and floor tiling.
What will you actually do on this course?
In a nutshell, you’ll learn everything that you need to get started as a confident professional tiler. That will naturally include – from the beginning of the first day – health and safety, followed by the preparation of surfaces and how to tile a kitchen.
As the first week of the course progresses, you will also be trained in such key matters as tile adhesives and grouts for different situations, tiling tools and tiling kits, and the various stages of bathroom tiling.
Then, you will have the chance to move onto a second week that will begin again with tiling a kitchen, but this time with a diamond splashback going up to funnel. You will later learn about tiling around a window inside and out, as well as such processes as tanking, plunge cutting and sealing.
Finally, on the last Friday of this second week, you will get to grips with the tiling of a bathroom floor, and whatever lingering questions you have can be answered ahead of the presentation of certificates.
All of the above will be complemented by the extra content that we are proud to incorporate into every YTA course. This includes the likes of full measuring and in-depth quoting, marketing techniques, business cards, how to advertise your services, and even insurance and business start-up.
