Hi just wondering if anyones done the 6 week plastering nvq course at goldtrowel and what its like ??i really want to get into the trade and debating weather the best thing to do would be to try look for a plasterer willing to train me up and id work for free for awhile as i feel if i found the right bloke id learn more that way, the problem is finding someone willing to train you up and put in the time,basically the course is 2300 pound and with not working and paying rent and bills etc for 6 weeks it would end up costing me about 5 grand which is alot of money for something that might not be a great option, im a painter and decorator by trade and have been for the last 9 years and im used to working with some people have completed a 2 month course or whatever and 95 percent of the time they havnt a breeze what they are doing and i certainly dont want to be that guy as i take alot of pride in my work and have a good eye for detail, any advice would be much appreciated thanks
 
you deffo could be onto something . im sure theres hundreds of people coming to england every year to do courses, theres no courses in Ireland at all
 
Any of the Irish boys on here up for opening up a course in Ireland. f**k me could be on to something.
Handy money if you ask me.Great idea,the country be full of highly skilled tradesmen in no time.I think €10,000 be fair price for intensive course.
