There are no qualifications obtainable in this Country(which are recognised). I am currently trying to negotiate with TTA to try and establish some sort of government recognised course or qualification.

There was a certain school who looked at running a three day course but this IMO is a waste of time. I believe such a course should be at least two weeks in duration.

I will post more when i am able to.

It wouldn't be TTA you need to go to for a recognised qualification would it? Surely it's ConstructionSkills? Or am I wrong?
