[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 490961, member: 1408"] Hi Jason , Like Geoff says , getting into this industry is not what it used to be . We get many guys asking the same question as you . Make no mistake college cost money and you cannot progress far without passing certain exams which may mean night school if you are working . To learn the contracting trade say , you need to start as a Trainee / Mate / Labourer , you'll need a Skill Card / Health & Safety card to work on sites . Work as a Labourer , watch & learn , start the basic courses at night college . Best option is try to get a start with either a large or small contractor , start building up a CV , earn a few £££s & try to progress through college . I wish you the best of luck , its a long slog mate ....not many kids at 16 are getting the traditional apprenticeships and theres many like yourself . [/QUOTE]
