Five Weeks of Trade Training for the Price of Four

You might be ready for a different working life. Perhaps you want the independence of working for yourself, the satisfaction of completing a renovation, or the confidence to offer customers a wider range of practical skills.

Build your programme around plumbing, tiling, plastering, carpentry and joinery, or kitchen fitting. Choose the available dates that suit you, with practical training at our centre in Bradford, West Yorkshire.

What Could Another Week of Training Help You Do?

When you look at a property project, the trades quickly connect. New bathroom fittings can mean moving pipework, repairing walls and laying tiles. A kitchen installation can involve units, worktops, plumbing connections and finishing work.

Learning complementary skills can help you take responsibility for more of those jobs. You gain a better understanding of how the work fits together and a practical foundation you can keep developing through experience.

You may want to build towards self-employment, add services to an existing business, or take on improvements to your own properties. The bonus week gives you more workshop time to practise, ask questions and develop another useful skill.

How the Five-Weeks-for-Four Offer Works

Choose four paid weeks of training, then contact YTA to arrange your additional five-day course. You can build the paid part of your programme in several ways:

  • Four five-day courses: learn four trades, with a full week in each.
  • Two ten-day courses: spend two weeks developing each of two trades.
  • One ten-day course and two five-day courses: combine deeper training in one trade with two complementary skills.

Each combination gives you 20 paid training days. With the free week, that becomes 25 training days. A ten-day course counts as two weeks, so you do not need four separate course items in your cart.

Your weeks can run consecutively where dates are available, or you can spread them around your commitments within the six-month offer period. Advanced training should follow the relevant foundation training.

Bathroom Fitting: Plumbing, Tiling and Plastering

If you want to work towards offering a bathroom replacement service, this programme brings together three closely connected trades:

Usual combined price: £3,750. Offer price: £3,000 including VAT. Save £750.

Property Maintenance: Four Trades and an Extra Week to Develop

Carpentry, Plastering and Kitchen Fitting

Usual combined price: £3,825. Offer price: £3,075 including VAT. Save £750.

This combination connects timber work, preparing and finishing rooms, and kitchen installation. It can be a useful direction for people interested in renovation and home improvement work.

How Kitchen Fitting Fits into the Offer

Kitchen fitting costs £825 for five days. A standard five-day trade course costs £750, so the difference is £75.

  • Choose kitchen fitting as a paid week: book it at £825 alongside three standard £750 weeks. Your paid courses total £3,075, and you can then arrange a standard fifth week free. The £75 difference is already included in the £825 course price.
  • Choose kitchen fitting as your bonus week: pay £3,000 for four standard weeks, then contact YTA to arrange the kitchen fitting week and its £75 supplement. Your total is £3,075.

Both examples give you five weeks including kitchen fitting and a £750 saving. Optional Level 1 upgrades are additional.

Add Level 1 to Your Ten-Day Courses

If you want recognised evidence of assessed skills alongside your practical training, choose the relevant Level 1 route for an additional £400 including VAT per ten-day trade.

Level 1 students undertake formal assessments. The qualification or unit accreditation awarded depends on the course and successful completion of its assessment requirements. Standard practical courses are Non-accredited with certificate of attendance.

For two standard ten-day courses and a free standard five-day week:

  • Practical training: £3,000 including VAT.
  • With one Level 1 upgrade: £3,400 including VAT.
  • With two Level 1 upgrades: £3,800 including VAT.

You still save £750 on the training in each example. If kitchen fitting is your bonus week, add £75 to these totals.

Use the Level 1 course links above when booking, or speak to YTA early in the first week of the relevant course if you are considering upgrading. Level 1 assessment fees are separate from the training offer and do not count as additional course weeks.
