New 5 Star Review of YTA Training and Assessment – Plumbing Course

A recent review ”I would recommend this course to anyone…” says it all really!

Another fantastic 5 star review from a candidate that has just completed the 5 day intensive plumbing course. Ian was sent on the plumbing course through work with another of his colleague that was also equally impressed. They both attend many courses in their line work (local council / government) and on the last day of the course they said it was one of the best they had been on, if not the best. We always love to hear that all the hard work every member of the YTA staff puts in is recognised. Thank you for leaving a great review Ian.

5 day plumbing course,It’s one of the better course’s I’ve been on. I now feel confident enough to be able to solder pipes and walk away knowing they wont be leaking. Great guys doing the training, Lyndon who does the plumbing and Lawrence who does joinery have both been on the tools and they know their stuff,they also passed a few tricks of the trade on,your never to old to learn something new. Relaxed atmosphere and not a lot of classroom work more practical work which is what you need in my opinion. I would recommend this course to anyone thinking of doing it, I learnt a lot.

New 5 Star Review of YTA Training and Assessment – 10 Day Intensive Plastering Course

A great 5 out of 5 star review has been left on Facebook. Rob has just completed the 10 day intensive plastering course and looking at his review he thoroughly enjoyed his time at YTA and will be back to book more courses! We always strive to help all our students achieve the most from their time at YTA but we can also have some fun along the way which makes it much more enjoyable to learn for most us.

Robs review:

Just completed the 10 day plastering course. As someone who has spent 10 years sat in an office with minimal hands on experience the YTA assessors were amazing, motivating, and bloody hilarious.

I can honestly say I’ve come away with the practical knowledge and confidence to get on the road and into the trade.

If your in 2 minds, agree with the one that says do it! You won’t regret it and I will be seeing them soon for further courses!

Thank you for the great review Rob from all the YTA Team.

This 10 day Intensive Plastering course is ideal if you are wanting to start a career in plastering and eventually move on to gain your NVQ level 2 in full plastering. An intensive hands on plastering course suitable for all trades-persons looking to add more skills. Or a complete beginner looking for a life change. No previous experience is needed.

New 5 Star Review of YTA Training and Assessment – Cskills Level 2 NVQ in Site Carpentry EWPA

A superb recent 5 star review from Micheal Manning who has recently completed his NVQ level 2 in Site Carpentry. Micheal is an experienced carpenter and joiner that needed to gain the NVQ level 2 in Carpentry so he could gain the blue ‘skilled worker’ CSCS card. The EWPA (Experienced Worker Practical Assessment) is the quickest route to gaining the NVQ if you have over 5 years experience as a carpenter & joiner. The EWPA route for the NVQ level 2 takes just one full day at our centre and we run the assessments predominantly at weekends.

The assessment went well, the trainers and the assessors were great, they make you feel at ease and can not do enough for you, the centre itself is fully kitted out and very professional, I would recommend this company to anyone, 10 out of 10.

Fantastic review Michael, 10 out of 10. Thank you from the YTA Team.

The EWPA is a NVQ assessment route enabling an experienced worker to achieve their NVQ level 2 in their relevant trade through a practical assessment. By using your skills acquired over the years to complete a task in our NVQ Centre (usually 1 day) which is then assessed. This qualification is the one required to attain the blue skilled worker CSCS card and gain construction site work.

We offer the EWPA route for the below trades:

NVQ Level 2 Certificate in Wall and Floor Tiling
NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Bricklaying
NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Site Carpentry
NVQ Level 2 Diploma in Plastering

We also offer NVQ level 2 assessments for more trades through the OSAT (On Site Assessment & Training) and you must have a minimum of 3 years experience for this route of assessment.
