hi john thanks for the post mate no i hav,nt passed my paper based yet have you? was it dificult or do you no anything at all about the theory? thats the 1 im intrested in.
Apart from the brazing bit from what ive heard theres nothing to worry about with the practical so im practising me brazing!

sorry mate just read my last message from this afto and i meant to put practical and theory test in it

hi john hope youre ok mate just wondered if you know how much the vetasses assesment costs? its just that my agent rang me today and said that the next thing he would be doing would be putting me in for the test do you know were they are held? how long it lasts? and how much? PS i feel quite lucky as ive been speaking to a plumber on here who says i can go and see him in sep when im out there and he will take me out for a bit plumbing exsperience and see how things are done there!

Hi,
If this helps we have just sent off $1600 payment to vetasses this weekend, hopefully in time to get in the July practical held in either London or Accrington. Just have to wait to see now, fingers crossed, good luck to you also.

Jacky

Hi Jacky,

Don't want to burst any balloons, but I have just read on the VETASSESS web site that today was the closing date for payment receipts for the July assessments. September 8th is the cut off for the October assessments.
Hope yours made it.

Simon.

hi jacky thanks for that info is that about £800 roughly? are you using an agent?
