I did my Plumbing Level 1,2 and 3 at Chesterfield College. Half way through my Level 3 course I applied for the Technical Coach position, not really sure what it was about but I thought the worst that could happen was that I’d get turned down. It went so well, they followed me out of the interview and offered me the job. I was so happy.
