Does anyone in this trade category have a format of their TRA for me to work on as a template? It would be much appreciated if I could see the types of things I should be including. My email is ADDRESS REMOVED
Many thanks!

It might be easier for you. Sorry - my OH is a plumber, but if you want to have a look at his sample reference letters to get a rough idea of requirement then please send me your email address via PM.

Zoe,

If you don't know where to start, why don't you engage someone to help you?

Best regards.

Hi Alan
We will give it a good go our selves first, just don't want to not include enough info if you know what i mean, We can't think straight at the moment our three daughters our home on school holidays, You know what girls are like worse than boys

I understand, Zoe. The process can seem daunting at first - try to break it down into small pieces, and take one step at a time.

It's potentially a life changing exercise, so if you get stuck, feel able to contact me.

Best regards.

Thanks Alan will do

Hi
I was also stressing about my TRA but its actually very simple.
I submitted copies of my apprenticeship contract, my trade test results
and my certificate from the Union here.
I also got a printout of all the VW courses I had done.
My references I typed up like below and gave to my current employer and
previous 2 so they had an idea of the format.

I made a list of all the tools in my toolbox and submitted that as
well.
Then I just wrote a narrative saying what I have repairs I have done
and what tools I used to do them.

At the end of it my agent said it was one of the best TRA apps he had
seen.
