Upskilling

Master Plumbers offers a wide range of upskilling courses. Choose from face to face, distance learning and online options.

2012 course timetable

The 2012 Quarter 2 course calendar is now available.

As always, we are happy to work with you should you require in-house training in addition to those courses scheduled on the calendar. Please don't hesitate to contact us if we can assist in that area.

CPD review

The Plumbers, Gasfitters & Drainlayers Board (PGDB) has confirmed that CPD will remain a part of the licensing requirements for practitioners.

The PGDB has now closed its consultation on its modified proposals for the CPD scheme and will announce its decisions in due course. Visit pgdb.co.nz for more information.

Practitioners who had not met their CPD requirements by 31 March 2012 will not be prevented from relicensing. However, they will need to have completed the 2011-2012 points requirements PLUS the requirement for 2012-2013 by 31 March 2013.
