6 week City & Guilds Professional Plastering Course
(City & Guilds 6218 Certificate in Basic Construction Skills)
Course overview
This course is designed to give the candidate an industry recognised certificate in Plastering. It consists of 6 weeks of on-site specialist training taking place at our training centre and can be broken up into weekly elements that you can complete in your own time but within a two year period. At Access Training our ethos is to ensure that each individual gains the plastering certification and training they need to go on and achieve what they want within the plastering industry, so we provide all materials and tools needed to complete the course, taking place within our specially designed training centre dedicate to plastering courses.
Who is this qualification for?
This course is designed for literally anyone. It is designed for adults of any age who want to become a plasterer and get in to the industry, but do not have the knowledge, experience or confidence to produce a professional quality and to work safely. The tutors delivering this course will share with you their knowledge from many years experience so you can learn the necessary skills to take on these jobs safely and correctly and you will learn at a speed that is comfortable to you as an individual.
You will gain the highest standard of achievement
All candidates will receive a City & Guilds certificate to confirm their attendance upon completion of the course criteria. It is also an option for individuals to extend their course and to progress onto the CAA level Diploma in Plastering. Even though this course is accredited by City & Guilds, extra training can be provided for delegates as an option that can help those students who intend to progress onto other more advanced plastering courses. You will be working with one of our tutors in your own training areas and will receive training, depending on your progress, in the following skills during the 6 weeks days spent with us:
