I attended a 3 day course (1 Bricklaying & 2 Day plastering) I thought the instruction, facility's & materials were all first class, I would defiantly recommend YTA to anyone wanting the basics or advanced in any of the skills offered. Special thanks to Dave & Lawrence

What a fantastic place to learn from highly skilled professionals in a warm, welcoming and focused setting. I was surprised by the amount of content covered in depth and detail to give a great grounding in principals and plenty of hands-on practice; all under the constant supervision of great professionals able to teach all abilities and ensure each person is given individual attention to enable them to reach their potential. A wonderful 4 weeks that has given me the confidence and skills to undertake the work I want. I would recommend YTA Training for those who wish to work in the trade, any property owners and anyone who wants to undertake work on their own home and achieve a professional finish at a fraction of the price. Don't hesitate, if you are thinking about it; JUST DO IT.

Having recently started a career in property development I soon found that it would be cost effective to learn some of the trades myself but I never thought I could get competent enough to have a go on my own projects and YTA enabled me to achieve just that. I was very shocked by how much I did learn as I had little hands on experience, however the tutors at YTA were very reassuring and made it comfortable and gave me confidence because they were really thorough and personal to instructing each person attending the course. Which I admired a lot. I did 4 courses, plumbing, plastering, tiling and brick laying back to back. By the end of each week I felt confident enough to go home and do work to my projects to a professional standard, purely because I can take as much time as I would like! So to conclude the course for me was probably the most valuable experience and extreme value for money, I could not recommend this place more to anyone who might feel they don't know it's right for them or interested, Thank you so much to all the team at YTA, Toby Woolley

YTA 5 star review on 23rd June 2017

Courses are comprehensive and robust, covering all angles from the simple to the complex. We were building on new skills learned from the first hour. The instructors are all very able, knowledgeable and experienced, applying what they know from the real world in the training space. As a female with limited practical experience I felt very comfortable and welcome, and got support from both the YTA team and other learners. I now would feel comfortable installing a bathroom, tiling a kitchen from top to toe and doing any basic joinery needed during a refit - I would strongly recommend YTA to anyone wanting to build on or learn new skills.

I'm not from the trade background but have always been interested in DIY and property renovation. I'd never attempted anything too large, but this was only due to the level of expertise and confidence I had. I contacted YTA and was guided down the 4 week multi-skilled course covering Plumbing, Joinery, Plastering, and Tiling. This would pretty much provide me with the expertise and knowledge I would need to update my property and future investments down the line to a professional standard. The four courses followed a strict structure, which is great, and the bays for each have been thoughtfully prepared for worst case scenarios, so you will leave knowing your can pretty much tackle any eventuality. The four courses were superb. The plumbing course was very intensive, probably the most time sensitive one of the four for me. This was due to the amount of information and practical lessons to cover within the tight 5 days. But saying that I came away after the week knowing how to fit a full bathroom suite, a radiator system, kitchen sink and waste, working with copper, and plastic pipework, and fix any problems that may occur. Graham the instructor was on hand to provide guidance and information throughout, and even a few funny stories from his time within the industry. Joinery and carpentry covered everything you would need from working with different hand tools. Say goodbye to electrical drills and saws for the first two days, this is about craft and using hand tools correctly and efficiently. This course is very relaxed, it's all about craft and perfection. The remainder of the week looked in stud wall development, door frame and door installation, along with skirting boards and working with awkward angles. Super course this one for anyone wanting to fine tune their chisel work and knowledge of hanging doors correctly and professionally. Lawrence the instructor was superb and his vast knowledge of the industry was priceless. Plastering again was very well structured. The bays provided you with every surface you may face. And they are a good size. In all fairness this was the only one I wasn't looking forward to, and I will be honest I loved it. Yes you get dirty, but you come to accept this after day two. Dave the instructor was excellent, with his slow walk up and down the bays shouting 'Get it on lads' and keeping a close eye on you, correcting any techniques and problems you may face on the way. Super course for first timers and plasterers wanting to fine tune their skills. Tiling was excellent. The bay you are given is a good size and covers a kitchen section with window and a bathroom section with shower. My advice to anyone taking a multi-skilled course is to attend the carpentry and joinery before your tiling one if possible. The crafting and precision sides of carpentry can be transferred onto the tiling side when you are working with and cutting tiles into awkward shapes and angles, and also the floor of doom which will test your cutting skills. You will learn everything you need to know to professionally tile a kitchen and bathroom, and on the last day a floor. This course was again nicely structured, but can be time sensitive, so if you do like to take your time you may find yourself falling back a little which I did on a few occasions. The only downside to the course would be the time on the flooring. We only had a few hours but it would've been nice to spend a bit longer learning about this section as I did feel it was a bit rushed. If this is a section you would like to learn a bit more in-depth YTA do a two day tile flooring course and maybe more suited. All in all if whether you're in the trade, or a passionate DIY-er wanting to learn how to do it right, then YTA is perfect. I will be back to attend the kitchen fitting course later in the year. Many thanks guys!
