I think Dave pointed out that it gives you a certificate which enables you to tick the 'Health and Safety box' on forms you may receive to be able to tender for larger contracts.
I wonder if it can also get certain types of insurance costs down as well?

Didn't cost a penny for me or my staff- goverment funded! Been a wc for 17 yrs so I too would like to think that I know it all! This sort of training or any forums weren't about when I started in '93 but like most I went in blind. Really looking to kick my business on this year and if means I have even a slight edge over someone who's tendering for same work as me, its worth doing. Not really bothered what people on here think, it's my customers and potential customers I care about!

im going to one in notts on friday

i would get ur NVQ now y it is free, give it a few years and it will be a standard that u have to have to be a wc, and will cost a bomb, u will end up needing it for insurance and i dont think it wil be that long after these are standard that u will need a licence and part of that will be ur NVQ, its the way everything is going, look at plumbing sparks, plasters etc all need a NVQ now
Why should we be any different, people on here go on about not wanting to be classed as doleys after beer money, but wont go on a NVQ course to say look i am a proffessional

i know hitman, but the way everything is going NVQs will be every where, and we will need one, i know gas fitters with NVQ and gas safety cards i wouldnt let touch a gas pipe, but they are qualified to do it, and it will end up the same with wc

ur right hitman, the gov get 580 bn in tax every year of the tax payer, not bad out of 1.4 trillion, i think in circulation
