My DH is thinking about retraining to be a plumber. Having done a good deal of research, he's found quite a few companies that offer flexible trade training. Of course, they all want us to part with large sums of cash. We are feeling a bit sceptical, because there seems to be quite a bit of hard sell involved with getting people to sign up to a course and no impartial advice. They make grand promises about potential future earnings and bleat on about the skills shortage but we just get this feeling that they're just after our money and the training might be really second rate, or the qualifications not worth the paper they're written on.
Does anyone have any experience of this sort of training? Is it genuine? Worth the money?
Thanks.
