Plumbers
Hi all,
I have a friend in the UK who is looking to move to Oz. Her hubby is a plumber and has to do that test thing in the UK. Does he have to do anymore tests when he gets here? Also he has been told that the money over here for plumbers is not that good. Not being a plumber myself I do not know and was wondering if anyone knew. Also they are looking to move to the Gold Coast would he find it easy enough to get a job are plumbers in demand here ?
Thanks everyone

Re: Plumbers
In short, yes! He will normally have to retrain and re-licence to Qld standards! For further, see the plumbers forum http://www.britishexpats.com/forum/f...play.php?f=119, or http://www.bsa.qld.gov.au/Home/Build...lasses/PDP.htm.
