Master Plumbers Appren0ces is a plumbing industry specific group training organisation that specialises in the employment of plumbing apprentices and looks for candidates who display enthusiasm, commitment, problem solving and communication skills and the ability to think for yourself.
Plumbing embraces a large area of work – water, sanitation, drainage, mechanical services, roofing and gas services. As it is specialist work, a license is required to do any plumbing, draining or gasfitting work.
Plumbers are extremely important to our society. Clean water and reliable plumbing are not only vital to public health but they are also an integral part of modern-day life. It takes years of training to become qualified and a career in plumbing calls for a dedication to lifelong learning, as the rate of technological advancement is rapid. An understanding of math and science is vital, and those on the tools need a head for heights, the ability to work in confined conditions and the stamina to complete physically demanding jobs.
Self-employed plumbers have flexibility of lifestyle and determine what they earn by the amount of effort they put into building their business. However, before you can become a self-employed plumber you must complete an apprenticeship – Certificate III in Plumbing, and then complete an additional course, Certificate IV in Plumbing and Services.
