Title: City & Guilds
Post by: Steve H on March 26, 2013, 08:10:27 pm

Hi Chaps,

Someone mentioned about the City & Guilds courses via Impact 43.
Does anyone think its not worth doing c & g Qualification? as going forward i think more and more qualifications will be needed for everything whether we like it or not - especially for those commercial guys - not sure if it will effect the domestic guys.

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks in advance chaps.

Steve

Thanks Richard, i assume you felt it was worth doing then, as you have the C&G logo displayed on your website. Great website by the way, is that done by yourselves via vistaprint or by them?

yer it was worth doing, eye opener really, its not about showing you how to clean a window or anything like that, its shows you the H&S that people dont know about or not sure on etc. but worth every penny! lol

thanks, i did it all myself via vista, but want to get a proper one sorted out sometime this year.
