Diploma Level 2 Plastering

Plastering Course description

Our most comprehensive plastering course with an industry recognised qualification. This is a formal Plastering trade qualification and is ideal for students who want to develop and progress in their career or for anyone who wants to start a new career. All of the training and assessments can be done in our centre so you do not have to be working onsite to complete the qualification. This qualification allows you to learn, develop and practice the skills required for employment and/or career progression in Plastering.

The Diploma also includes on-site experience with a qualified and experienced plasterer.

Each Unit of the course contains practical assessments, which are assessed by one of our qualified assessors and evidence kept to build up a complete portfolio. There are also multiple-choice tests, which can be undertaken at the centre or on your own PC. You will be fully supported by our tutors throughout the qualification. Our small classes mean you will have plenty of support and hands on guidance from your tutor and assessors.

We provide all the materials you need including the official City & Guilds reference book, which guides you through the course while you build up your portfolio. All of the practical training and assessment is carried out in the centre allowing you to complete the qualification without delay and with our full support.

After completing the Diploma, you may want to progress onto the NVQ at a later date and you can also complete that with us.
