TRA advice (plasterer)

[dairic]

Hi this is my first post, can anyone tell me how much detail i have to go into for the tra i'm a plasterer. It seems to be a minefield to do. thanks

hello mate,my wifes a chef and we have just sent our tra off we are going through an agent and he prepared it for my wife she had to do a very detailed report of what shes been doing for the last twenty years even had to go back to her college days

hi dairic
welcome to the site, everyones case for the tra is individual, but you go along the guidelines of explaining the job you do in as much detail as you can so that somebody who doesnt know the job would understand it.
My hubbys was bricklayer, so we explained how to build a house from scratch listing all tools used etc, it was a four page typed essay but this included various types of jobs he`d done and his training, but a friend of his applied as a plasterer and didnt write as much as there isnt so much to write about plastering. just be detailed & include all references, qualifications etc
hope this helps alittle but im no expert this just worked for us,

my husband does plastering & lime plastering too and although someone said dont include this in application we did as we thought it couldnt hurt, but we didnt go into great detail on it as it wasnt the trade he applied for

hi i,m a plasterer waiting for house to sell then on to melbourne, just as the others have said about the TRA write down every detail as much as you can no matter how trivial you think it is,just describe what you would do to plaster a room step by step,and what tools you use.
