UK Painter Courses
So you've completed your apprenticeship. Well done!
Being a good painter doesn't automatically mean you will make lots of money. Business skills are skills not often taught during an apprenticeship.
To help you learn to establish and run a successful business we've created an on-line mentoring and coaching program for painters based in the U.K. Topics covered include:
- Estimating, Tendering and Quoting
- Financial Management and Budgeting
- Marketing and Business Development
- Effective Customer Service
One of the most important things you can do to establish a successful business is to specialise in a particular aspect of painting. This means further study and practice in advanced skills.
Our advanced skills training includes the following topics:
- Paint Colour Consultancy
- Anti-graffiti Coatings
- Protective Coatings
- Texture Coating
- Spray-painting
- Lead paint Abatement
