Construction Qualifications

I chose my course as I wanted to gain a trade and follow a career in Painting and Decorating, but learning in depth about the construction sector has also been extremely interesting, and I’m keen to learn more. I intend to continue to develop my painting and decorating skills, and hope to be running my own business in the not-too-distant future.
