Well, finally got my NVQ test booked for a months time. As it happened another tiler I've known for years was doing it as well , as a consequence the tester has given us a discount for doing the test on the same day together. Still think its a bit of a con ,but given my preference (health reasons ) for site work nowadays , its an unavoidable nesescity tbh.

I'm confused are you talking about the CSCS test or are you doing the Experienced Worker Practical assessment route (EWPAR) [h=3][/h]

I found this video a year ago and its the citb scottish tiling skills test.
I'm not for one minute saying this is what you will do BUT it will give you an idea of what might get thrown at you on the day.
and surprise surprise, there's some plastering skills required?? Maybe we are getting back to the old ways hey, just kidding ;0) lol
hope this helps, might make a new thread for this video.
