It didnt .......... low interest and only a handful of places booked so I pulled it. .......... prefer to give honest answer as oppossed to a load of bull poo which aint my style.

For now the window cleaning college is on hold.... may revisit it at a later date ??

Looks like no classroom for me.

It seems that most window cleaners don't think that they need any training.

Guess you gave it a go.

nice gentle way to make money is running a course.  I knew a lady doing  art courses or maybe embroidery I forget now  ,what I do know was she was always fully booked always - I used to cut her grass and change her water softener tablets

SFWC.
I'm going to run the uni course.
All you need to do is pay me the £9k tuition fees a year.
And in 7 short years one can learn how to clean a pane if glass.
A bargain methinks.
Window cleaning is very difficult. That's why there are hardly any about.
Someone really should invent self cleaning glass cause the skill needed to clean will surely die out at some point.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Half infact over half on ere can trad

How ??? Wfp as made a very good living
For a hell of a lot of ppl window cleaners they r not
Pole operators they may be
Be certainly not window cleaners !!
What Ian was doing was introducing
Window cleaning as a trade a job
Not just a means to earn money .
The people on ere mainly knockers
Cudnt live with a real window cleaning outfit
Just fr the amount of how much for this etc
Shows most ain't a clue ,£50 per hour men
All driving bentleys and vans on finance .
Wake up boys it's window cleaning
Done by window cleaners !
LET YOUR PANES BE MY PLEASURE

"If CALSBERG did WINDOW CLEANING
 it would be C.C.C  Probably the best WINDOW CLEANERS IN THE WORLD ..........."

Gav,

How much do you put in your Bentley convertible per week ?

And if you think of selling, I'm interested as long as you leave roof bars on, ha

When you round here

You miss the point. Training is not so much about learning HOW to do the job but rather showing that you are competent for the job.

Not so much for residential work but for ticking the boxes when getting commercial work.
