Title: Plumbing- a new career
Post by wrencher on Aug 1^st, 2005, 11:35am

I am a mature student looking to start a career in plumbing.
It seems if you are over 24 then all the doors into training appear to be closed.
Are there any recognised accredited courses that are available for someone in my situation. ???

You couldn't be further from the truth m8

most Company's including the one Islave for prefer mature trainees.

Leg work is required visiting plumbers and heating engineers in your area which you don't mention.
