Discuss NVQ 2 Wall+Floor Tiling? Waste of time...? in the UK Tiling Forum area at TilersForums. The USA and UK Tiling Forum (Also now Aus, Canada, ROI, and more)
I just spotted this post and the penny dropped so I then read some of your other posts. Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive.I understand where you are coming from and can only empathise with your frustration.
My first couple of weeks on an NVQ :
I was told to learn to look telephone numbers in London up
Taught to make a tile staff through a video
Allowed to tile a Herringbone pattern I grouted it and got a bollocking no grouting till at least three months.
Taught how to calculate M2 area I learnt that when I was 10.
It went on and on
Some time ago i interviewed a guy who had just completed his NVQ 2
I asked him three questions
What is the difference between Class B and Class AA adhesive? (I know the classifications have changed now as well) (No Idea)
Explain Briefly Tanking? (No Idea)
Tell me what a Datum Line is? (No Idea)
He added things to his answers of no idea but I won't bore you with the drivel
Give me a tiler who has paid for a good quality intensive course any day

I'm OBVIOUSLY not a tiler then!!! :mad2: What the flock am I doing on here then......i dont agree with that comment give me a tiler who has paid for an intensive course i did my nvq at college and i can answer those questions no offence but i would rather have a good time served tiler over a chancer (course tiler) anyday experience is the key
an nvq course with proper training with a time served good tiler is better than a 4 week course you cant call yourself a tiler after a 4 week course same goes for plastering and other trades
Of course we are.you know what i mean grumps im dont want to cause any disrespect obviously after a year or so after your course i mean just as soon as you finish your course im gonna drop this subject now about time served v new tiler.
are we still friends?:lol:
