Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog as this is my first post i better start by introducing myself my name is Clifford though all my friends call me Cliff, i am 43 years young male joiner who has been re-training as a plumber with Train 4 Trade Skills since October 2010. I am presently on section 2 module 16 and have completed scenarios 1 to 6 as well as the first 4 online training ie; Introduction, Health & Safety, Soft Soldering and Copper Tube Bending. It has been a very challenging to return to education but also very rewarding, and though i struggled at first i am now getting used to the workload. Unfortunately i was made redundant in December which was a great worry as the job market is very depressed and the prospects of finding another job were slim, I contacted the team at T4TS who were very helpful, they sent me a redundancy claim pack and i was about to claim, but i found part-time employment so i never posted the claim form back, this has been both a blessing and a curse as the extra time to spend studying is great but the obvious drop in income has put extra stress on the family. Well that's all for now if you've read this many thanks please feel free to comment or contact me direct through email.
