Course details

This 4 week course will provide you with the knowledge and skills to start to undertake dry lining (finishing) work.

You will be trained and assessed across the following areas:

  • Use of jointing products and associated tools
  • Use and identification of reinforcement tape and beading for angles
  • Preparation of surfaces and understanding backgrounds
  • Direct bond application of plasterboards

This is a fantastic access to work experience full of hands-on practical training course with designated assessments.

These 4 weeks of hands-on reality training will cover all of the basic and essential skills relating to Dry Lining (Finishing) and once you have completed this course, we have no doubt that your skill level will enable you to find work within the Dry Lining industry.

This course can be completed in 4 consecutive weeks, or you can attend in 4 separate weekly blocks if you need to break the attendance time up a bit. The point of this course is to provide you with the training to assist you with access to the industry and to make this easier, at the end of the course, we will register you for Level 2 NVQ Certificate in Interior Systems (Construction) - Dry Lining Finishing. We will provide you with a start-up portfolio which will include all of the evidence and assessment sheets ready for you to use as and when you gather your work-based evidence.

By registering you for NVQ, you can also gain access to a CSCS Experienced Worker or Trainee card (if you arrange independently to sit a CSCS test) – this will further enhance your access to work.

Once you are ready to arrange work-based assessments, additional fees will be payable - please call for details.

NVQs are ‘Declarations of Competence’ and as such, cannot be achieved in a simulated environment like a training centre – all we can do here is prepare you for the process.

This is a hands-on, practical Dry Lining course and you will be involved at every stage and will be participating throughout. It is therefore recommended you bring suitable clothing and for your own safety, steel capped footwear is essential.
