Is doing an NVQ in plumbing.?

Question:well i was considering to go college for one day a week to do plumbing at college. Is this the best way or would i be better off doing an apprenticeship with a company full time?

Answers:
I have been a plumber for about 15 years now and all I can tell you is that it all depends where you live and how important your local labor laws are. I work in Ct. and they require schooling and on the job training to fill the criteria for a pplumbing lisencse (2000 hours schooling and 8000 hours on the job training). You can't make over 2000 hours of on the job training a year in Ct. so this works out to about 4 years to obtain your P2... you still have to take classes, but most people take a night course a couple of nights a week to achieve this. In short... I would say get a job in the field first and take the night courses. Good luck!
Apprenticeship best option
