5 Day NOCN Cskills Level 1 unit Tiling Course
Price £575 inc vat
This is our 5 day wall and floor tiling course and you will undertake a wall tiling assessment or floor tiling assessment during the course. The certification you will receive upon meeting the criteria of the assessment will be either NOCN Cskills Level 1 Wall Tiling unit accreditation or NOCN Cskills Level 1 Floor Tiling unit accreditation.
Please note: This 5 day wall and floor tiling course is a UNIT ACCREDITATION certificate.
If you would like the FULL level 1 qualification: NOCN Cskills Level 1 Certificate in Wall and Floor Tiling then you will need the 10 day course.
NOCN Cskills (Construction Skills) formally CITB are the awarding body for construction NVQ’s so the Cskills brand and logos are well known within the construction industry. This unit of accreditation will show potential employers or customers your competence in your chosen trade.
If you choose to undertake a 2nd week of tiling at YTA (our advanced tiling course) you can add to your qualifications by completing another 3 units of accreditation and you will then receive the Level 1 Certificate in Wall and Floor tiling.
This is our intensive 5-day tiling course and is suitable for anyone who wishes to enter the tiling industry including other tradespersons wishing to enter the tiling industry or a complete beginner. We have no more than 4 tiling students per instructor to maximise your skills gain from the tiling course.
Prior knowledge of tiling is not needed to start the course as we can start straight from scratch or if you have some prior skills we can tailor the course to suit your needs.
Our target is to have you leave the tiling course armed with enough information and confidence to begin your new tiling career as a tiler and make a success of it, as many of our former students have. Our latest effectiveness poll returned 23 out of 30 students have set up and are enjoying their new self employed tiling careers.
Our tiling courses are unique in that we provide tiling study notes at the end of each day so you are in the right frame of mind for the following day’s tiling tasks. This will enable us to cover such an extensive amount of knowledge in a short space of time giving more hands on practical training.
It doesn’t take the place of tutored learning but it is always there as a reference after the course. Please feel free to book a visit and have a look around the center and chat to tiling students already on the tiling course!!
