Seriously ! Its the cheapest course out there by long way considering its also hands on and you get to install flooring and at that as much flooring as you like. Its Not a demo! like some so called 'courses' i have seen in the past. If it could run cheaper i would do. FloorSkills is breaking even at the moment when you count in materials used / rent etc. So far FloorSkills courses have not been able to pay a instructor. Instead our instructors have run courses FREE of charge to help benefit the trade. So i cant see the price of the course being to much. It should be A LOT MORE> If you compare price- 2 Day FloorSkills = £295 2 Day FITA (simular) = £414 (£345 NET) 3 day Quick Step (it is 3 day rather than 2 day ) £500+ Your comment is noted tho, not sure what we can do to help but any suggestions on how we can reduce cost will be great so we can lower price or maybe pay the instructors
its my fault matt not yours, ive seen the prices of some other courses, what i ment to say really is i cant afford it at the mo, (still buying tools, and saving up for another van so i need to save as much as i can), but as soon as i have the money ill be coming on these courses if theres room for me, instead of going on other courses (fita etc) that are way over priced. sorry if i confused you! o btw is it +vat or all in
Seen graham this morning. Was saying how much he enjoyed last week course. He said its changed the way he cuts mitres forever. Lol, he's been fitting amtico since in came out and still learnt loads.
Thats great to hear mate. Im glad he picked up a few tricks. Must say he is in my top ten of knowledgeable chaps that have attended a course. He defo knows his onions so teaching him a trick or two is very pleasing. You may want to pass on that comment to him
Will do mate, he said on way down youe never too old too learn and hes right. will get him on another one later in the year.
well yes if i was livng in a 3rd world country then teh few pence i come out with would possible make me look like a wealthy person. Sadley i live in eth U.k and the few pence might just buy me a Mars bar or simular !
