Week Four

Most students on our four-week course opt to go on site for this week, subject to availability and location. During this week you will get the opportunity to work alongside professional tilers working within the construction industry. This gives you the chance to find out how the working environment of a tiler ticks along.

Some students may get a chance to fix tiles or just do some labouring or grouting, depending on the site circumstances.

The object of this period in the course is to gain you on site experience, health and safety awareness and gives you the chance to talk to some of the real professional tilers that have chosen to make their living within the construction industry.

Friday you will receive your certificates of competence and have the chance to talk through all aspects relating to your course.
