Plumber, with no formal qualification but with a Engiineering degree

[creativeuk]

I have worked as plumber for 2years and six months part time + 6 months fulltime plumber.i don't have any apprenticeship in plumbing.
Also i have done Bachelor in Electronics Engg,which is irrelevant to plumbing.
can i apply for fsw as plumber(without formal plumbing education)
Does my bachelor degree affect the case if i apply as plumber

Am i eligible to apply for FSW.

Thanks for all replies

Try QSW if you have knowledge in French

I don't think there will be any problem if you are able to prove that you r indeed doing plumbing work.
1. From your id I guess you are from UK which can be added advantage as you can have better documents/contracts/salary slips/IT returns to prove your statement.
2. If you are a member of any groups/association/union for plumbers or have passed certain required examination, than there should not be any problem.
3. Your bachelors degree in Electronics can be a problem but you can always say that you were unable to find a job so you did whatever you can to support you and your family.

I am from US.

You can assess yourself online for the QSW and see based on your education and experience what the result will be.

I hope this helps.
