Any plumbers done Vetasses practical??

Hi

Can any plumbers give us some info to what happens at Vetasses practical. What type of things do they ask you to do for a general plumber?

Have just sent an evidence matrix to agent and there were 2 aspects on it which have no experience in, sprinkler systems and concrete leveling, agent has advised to study up on those as they might still come up at practical. Any advice appreciated.

Maz

Hi Maz, im slightly behind you with my application,but ive downloaded the vetassess forms. I have also like you no experiance in sprinkler systems, but have installed the odd hose reel.(many years ago). What part of plumbing involves concrete leveling,andtruss supports ?. Only concreteing ive done were footings for my garden wall.
I will be watching this site very carefully to find information that hopefully benefit all us plumbers.

many thanks for the thread

Gary

Hi Ga & Ma, your concrete skills are for rain water tank and LPG bottle bases. And also when you have jack hammed up a drive or pavement to repair a sewer line or poly water main. Which has probebly been poorley fitted by a dodgy aussie.
