I've got the city and guilds 1,2 and 3 in plumbing.
I've got my ticket for unvented hot water and I've done the water regs course. Plus a couple of other smaller online health and safety courses.

beng a chap of few words i will elaborate as a plumber you will fit drains soakwells and storm water pipes, you will dig in your cold supply on tube outs, when doing a sani "2nd fix in uk" you will dig down to find your dry floor waste pipes, you will also probably dig a sleeve in the driveway for the retic guys. when working on copper you will never soft solder again, almost all pipes are brazed flared fittings are used on gas and many water fittings are also flared , ive been here for a year and i am running my own site of 30 houses, believe me mate for the first months you will have some stress. this time last i was sat in the uk thinking it would be a "walk in the park "
