I explained my situation in the New Members forum earlier today where I am really wanting to change career and become a tiler.
I have just spent 7 hours on the phone and it seems like I am hitting a brick wall :mad2::mad2:
I cant leave my current job because I need the salary I get to run the family. So I thought I could do an NVQ. My idea was to work evenings and weekends and have my assesments done the days I am onsite.
I have been told all day long that it is not possible and I have to work as an apprentice or be in full time employment in that industry.
I then looked at night scool and the only course I could find is not a "Trade Recognised" certificate so I could spend a year doing it and still not get work.
I am willing to work evenings, weekends and go to college etc where ever possible but I just cant find a route where I can keep my curent job and salary.
Can anyone suggest anything on how I can get there.
