The Easy Plumb Theory course, covers all the underpinning knowledge required to take you to
the City & Guilds 6129 (Technical Certificate in Plumbing). If you wish to
obtain an NVQ Level 2, (6089) which is a work-based qualification, this can only be achieved through on the job assessments carried out in the workplace.
A far quicker and cost-effective route to kick-start your plumbing career, is to gain two City & Guilds competency based, stand-alone qualifications, City & Guilds 6022 / City & Guilds 6032. These qualifications coupled with basic plumbing skills allow you to work as a plumber, help build your confidence and knowledge, gain some experience and also allows you to start building your portfolio of evidence to help towards an NVQ Level 2. Sudents receive full guidance and advice on how to create a portfolio.
