Description

This one -day course is designed to help anyone supervising subcontractors in the low-rise residential sector to upskill and gain competency.

Participants will cover a range of British Gypsum products and systems including DriLyner Dab, GypWall Single Frame Partitions, GypCeiling MF and Gyproc Plasterboards to timber and metal frames. There’s a mix of hands-on learning and classroom teaching to demonstrate installation in theory and in practice.

The learning is delivered by experts with years of industry experience to pass on.
