the basic plumbing qualification would be NVQ2 plumbing. takes two years to do, but only 1 or 2 days a week. this covers obviously hot cold water. bit of lead work, and basic central heating.
this is probably more than alot of plumbers out there actually have.
this is also enough for you to take ACS (gas training) then get corgi reg.

It will take a few years of that for someone to become comftable at working for themselves imho. Its no good doing 2 days a week at college and then thinking you can go it alone......There is more "Trade secrets" to learn......Drinking tea is my forte
PS-Dont beleive the papers that you will earn 70k a year.......................its more like 170

have u tried look for an apprenticeship?
thats what im doing.
i did a full time college year to start and then 3 day release years.
that way u get paid, get experience, get qualifactions and get a possible job at the end of it all.
