”Best Course I’ve Ever Done!” New 5 Star YTA Review – Azher Ashraf – Scotland

“The best training school I’ve ever been to!” says Azher Ashraf from Scotland after completing multiple courses at YTA.

Azher left a fantastic 5 star YTA review following the completion of our plumbing, carpentry & joinery courses with more courses already booked in for the coming months!

The best training school I’ve ever been to. Travelled from Scotland and its the best course I’ve ever done. Paul the plumbing teacher was outstanding 10-10 for the help and knowledge. Dave in the tiling sector and Lawrence in joinery section were really good. Helped whenever asked this Is the best company in the UK. All hands on from the word go already booked on a kitchen course and joinery. They helped my self in every possible. Keep up the great work guys.

Thank you Azher for a great 5 star YTA review.

The 5 day plumbing course is suitable for total beginners with no previous experience or tradespersons such as tilers, plasterers, joiners, kitchen fitters etc who wish to undertake plumbing tasks from changing taps, plumbing in a kitchen sink including a washing machine to full bathroom replacements including fitting of radiators in order to gain more work and income. In the current climate the tradesperson who can do the whole job to a customer tends to gets the more jobs leaving the customer without the headache of finding multiple trades to complete a home project.

This plumbing course is aimed to give you enough skills to develop your expertise to a career in plumbing as many of our former plumbing candidates have or just to give you the confidence to take on plumbing projects around the house however small or large.

Our 5 day plumbing course will provide you with a great insight and understanding of the plumbing trade whether you are a total beginner or have some previous plumbing experience.

This 5 day intensive carpentry and joinery course is ideal if you are wanting to start a career in carpentry and eventually move on to gain your NVQ level 2 in Site Carpentry. No previous experience in carpentry is necessary. We also offer a 10 day course and 10 day level 1 course in carpentry & joinery.

New 5 Star YTA Review – Carpentry & Joinery Course

New 5 star YTA review following the completion of our 10 day Cskills level 1 certificate in carpentry & joinery.

Kieran Smolka – Level 1 Carpentry & Joinery Course

An excellent 2 weeks doing the level 1 carpentry and joinery course, the trainer was patient and very knowledgeable, he gave lots of tips and tricks to help. An easy company to deal with and I felt they are value for money. Hopefully I will be back to do my level 2 in the future.

Thank you Kieran for a great 5 star YTA review. Once you have gained a minimum of 3 years experience we can then look at you enrolling onto the NVQ level 2 in either site carpentry or bench joinery.

This 10 day Cskills level 1 Certificate in carpentry and joinery course is ideal if you are wanting to start a career in carpentry and eventually move on to gain your Cskills NVQ level 2 in Site Carpentry.

Phil Marr – 10 day Carpentry & Joinery Course

I did the 2 week carpentry course in February 20. The course was great, very well led by Lawrie who is very capable in all aspects of carpentry and general construction. Tools and materials provided were all top -drawer and the assignment based learning was ideal for my needs. I would highly recommend YTA to anyone who wants to understand about proper traditional woodworking and construction techniques.

Carpentry NVQ still running

Our site carpentry EWPA option could give you a Level 2 qualification in next to no time

There are certain things that anyone who wishes to become a professional carpenter needs to possess; a sound knowledge of building and construction, considerable attention to detail, a good ability to work well with others, the ability to use, repair and maintain tools and machinery…One more thing that you will definitely require if you are to gain site work as a skilled worker, though, is the blue skilled worker CSCS card. And if you are to obtain that, you’ll need to have the right qualification under your belt. That qualification is an NVQ Level 2 in carpentry, and while various construction training providers up and down the UK give you the opportunity to earn this qualification, there are few that make it as pleasurable as we do here at YTA!

 

The renowned fast-track route for joiners with previous experience

‘EWPA’ is short for ‘Experienced Worker Practical Assessment’. The purpose of this particular NVQ route is to enable someone whois already experienced in their chosen trade to achieve a Level 2 qualification much more quickly than would be the case if they were completely ‘starting afresh’ with their training.

In keeping with our reputation as one of the UK’s premier construction training providers, YTA offers EWPA fast-track options to those wishing to earn qualifications in not only site carpentry, but also wall and floor tiling, bricklaying and plastering. Focusing specifically on the site carpentry EWPA route, though, as long as you have five or more years’ joinery experience and both you and our NVQ assessor are confident about your chances of passing, you will be entitled to book a one or two-day assessment with us. This time you spend at our training centre will allow us to evaluate your skills through a combination of professional discussion, witness testimonies and the practical assessment.

If you are happy to arrive at our premises for 7:30am, we will be able to complete the entire NVQ carpentry assessment for you in one day. When the day concludes, the assessor will inform you whether or not you have achieved, and if you have, your certificate will be sent to you within 14 days.

 

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

We have a very large assessment centre (6500 sq foot) that is currently closed for our usual 5 & 10 days training courses but we are still assessing for NVQ level 2 qualifications through EWPA (Experienced Worker Practical Assessments) at the weekends. 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.

If you would like to gain your NVQ through the EWPA route or would like more information the please email info@ytatraining.com and the assessor will give you a call back within 24 hours.

 

We really can quickly get you you 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 once we are all back at work, to book your place or to discuss how we can best serve your construction training / assessment requirements.

We are open for business

We are open for business and our courses are still running every week. Our training centre is a large 6500 sq foot, high ceiling well ventilated area with individual training bays AND tools per person. We have latex gloves and masks to wear if required along with hand-wash and cleaning wipes and we only teach small class numbers on average 5 per class.

All hands-on practical training out in the centre learning. Here’s a selection of photos taken this week and last week from the plumbing, tiling, carpentry and plastering courses.

If on the Government advice, businesses like ours are asked to close, we can re-schedule courses for a later date. With a little help and goodwill we will all get through this, we’ll support you, we ask you support us.

We do have a policy if you cant attend due to coronavirus which can be found here.

Join us for five or 10 days to start your professional carpentry journey

You’ll doubtless be hearing a lot of things at this time of year about new beginnings, including the things you ‘should’ do – getting fit, travelling more and so on. Well, here at YTA, we really don’t think you can make any better New Year resolution than one that could get you started on a whole new rewarding career.

Yep, we’re referring to our certificate in carpentry & joinery courses that last for five days or 10 days, depending on what might suit your preferences and needs.

But what makes one of these courses such an excellent platform for success if you aspire to be a carpenter or joiner for a living in 2020?

These are courses that you can trust

And when we say ‘trust’, we’re not asking you to simply take our word for it! That’s because these are NOCN Construction Skills (Cskills) courses, so you can be assured of the reputability of this training path by the name alone.

You don’t need to have any previous carpentry experience in order to embark on our five-day or 10-day NOCN Cskills Level 1 certificate in carpentry & joinery courses.

The five-day course is a unit of accreditation that will show potential employers or customers you are competent in this trade, while the 10-day course culminates in a full qualification – the NOCN Cskills Level 1 Certificate in Carpentry and Joinery.

So, what can you expect to learn?

While these courses naturally differ in terms of the number of units you will be trained and assessed in, undertaking either route will enable you to get to grips with a broad variety of aspects of carpentry.

From building a stud partition wall with a doorway and hanging a door including the fitting of locks, right through to learning about fixing mouldings and the various tools pertinent to carpentry and joinery, these courses cover the extensive territory that will enable you to start your career in this trade with the utmost confidence.

Why not, then, click through to our full online pages in relation to the five-day or 10-day carpentry course, before getting in touch directly with the YTA team to ask any questions you may have and to make your booking?

We have opportunities open to secure your place on either of these certificate in carpentry & joinery courses for January, February or well into the spring – so you really do have no excuses for not making those big steps to realise your ambitions in this enjoyable trade in the months ahead.

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.
