I attended a course in the south about 3 months ago thinking it was going to be great as their website looked good and it was quite close to me although i still had to travel to get there, this course turned out to be very poor and at DIY level at best, i came away not really much better off than before i attended, £350 and a week out of my life wasted. I had seen UK Pro Tiling Training and actually phoned Tracey up prior but the distance had put me off hence the reason i went local. Cut a long story short i rang tracey again and booked on, this course is unbelievable, i learned more in the first day here than the other course put together. What makes this course superb is that darren teaches you how to tile in the real world dealing with marketing, estimates, measuring, pricing products, backgrounds etc and how to put it all together to make a business out of tiling. The course pulls no punches and Darren delivers information relentlessly, the tiling skills passed on are brilliant and the course follows a non stop program from 8.30 to 5pm with only half and hour break for lunch. I wish i had of came here first, this course is not the cheapest but you get what you pay for in life and this is like the equivalent of going to a 5 star hotel instead of paying for 2 star. i set up my tiling business soon after the course and started working straight away, first week i made £700 and then it got better, i have worked right up to xmas and have half of january booked in so can't thank Darren and Tracey enough. The whole process of booking is really easy with Tracey, she sorts out accommodation in there own properties which are top notch and you stay there with other attendees on the course, this was great as you spend the evenings going over the course and you actually learn loads here as well bouncing off each other. Highly recommended, thinking of going somewhere else then think again, don't be put off if you have to travel, its worth it Jacko
