Carve out a career with a City and Guilds

Plastering is an art form. Some can do it to perfection whilst others will take days to finish one wall - which may well turn out to resemble something found in the modern art section of a London gallery! If your partner insists that the decorating is well overdue, there are professionals out there that have had years of experience in the trade. If you wish to see your walls smooth and unwrinkled, get in touch with them and obtain a quote. It may very well end up saving your marriage as well the inside of your home! Should you be thinking of becoming a decorator, plumber, electrician or even car mechanic, you could enrol at your local university or college in order to obtain a City and Guilds qualification.

Have a look on the internet or make an appointment with a person that's in charge of enrolment and see what's available - and most importantly when the courses start. If you go down this route you'll have no job and consequently no money coming in. Many companies employ apprentices that have little or no experience. What happens is that they will train you on a day by day basis and will pay for the tuition fees in order that you can obtain the necessary qualifications. You may have to attend evening classes in your own time, but at the end if the day you'll have the necessary paperwork that will enable you to move onward and upward. The ceiling (or sky's) the limit!
