Re: Working as a tech for VM

yea the training is really good, im training at the kellys site at edmonton, north london. 1st and 2nd day is an intro to the Virgin brand which is good, yesterday i done Health and Safety, and today it was Road Safety which was also good. For both Health & Road Safety you get a City & Guilds Certificate which you can use for future Construction Jobs and other careers involving them (if you move on from Virgin that is).


Tommorow i have RF training which im not sure what it is. Then next week im out on the field Shadowing a experienced tech for a week, then im back to college for 2 weeks (last week involves your final assesement).

Im quite lucky because im local to the training center but other guys there are from all over the country so they are staying in a hotel, but they are enjoying themselves.
