Press Release Summary: In the light of Britain's continued shortage of qualified
trades people, home study specialists Train4Trade Skills has announced that
thousands are signing up to study at home, using their unique blended learning
plumbing courses.

Press Release Body: In the light of Britain's major shortage of plumbers and
qualified trades people, Train4TradeSkills' revolutionary home-learning plumbing
courses have attracted thousands of would-be plumbers, including a large number of
ladies, since it was launched less than 12 months ago.

The Train4TradeSkills courses are designed to enable plumbers to qualify in their
own time, at their own pace, while studying from home and often working around
existing job commitments, to achieve industry recognised qualifications. They are
totally unique because they combine textbook theory the opportunity to try out newly
learnt skills on a PC based virtual house, reinforcing the textbook studies and
ensuring students practice in a safe environment, and not at customers' expense.

Once students have passed their initial modules, hands-on practical training is
offered in fully equipped workshops in Leeds, Guildford and Southampton.

Train4TradeSkills' marketing director Mike Head said "Over a third of school leavers
opt not to continue with formal education at a college or university. Courses such
as ours provide students with the chance to study skills in their own time, at home,
and at their own pace, as well as accommodating older plumbing students who may well
want to study around existing job commitments. We currently have an ex-naval
officer, a former paramedic and a number of housewives studying with us".
