Hi Chaps,

I've been working as a mate/labourer with my dad (spark) since I was 15. I'm now 21 and need to get my qualifications. College was out of the question this year, due to up front financial requirements, so I looked around a bit and stumbled across ATL Practical Training.

I know theres a few threads on here and other sites that slate them, and others that say they're a pretty good organisation. Basically having read through everything, I can't seem to find anyone who has actually completed the course, and more importantly became a FULLY QUALIFIED spark. Most people seem to be posting halfway through the course, or seem to be in a similar boat to myself and are looking to sign up to ATL. Its like I can't get a full story from anywhere.

I know people say theres no point in doing these courses without on the job training, but I have 6 years on the job training, and am currently working 5 days a week with my old man. A lack of quals are the main set back.


So I guess I'm asking a few things really...

1. Are ATL a trustworthy company?
2. Do I become a FULLY QUALIFIED spark at the end of it all?
3. Is this course any different than a college course, with the ongoing training I'm already getting anyway?

Any additional info would be much appreciated also.

Cheers,
Jim
