PLUMBING education

My plumbing education is mostly theoretical other than fixing a few things around the house. I am currently waiting for a spot in the Plumbing Foundations Program at Camosun however I am motivated to get started and start learning in the field.

This past month I enrolled in some Online Courses through Alison Learning and have dedicated a lot of time to get a Diploma in Plumbing studies. This was a great introduction to the trade covering everything from Safety Hazards, Plumbing Tools and Drawings, identifying different Pipes and fittings, Drain Waste Vent Systems and Water Distribution systems. To deepen my understanding I have taken and completed another course covering The Theoretical Foundations in Domestic Plumbing.

I am motivated to get started on my apprentice journey with the Union 324. I am looking for an opportunity to learn from the best and start my plumbing journey. I'm extremely motivated and ready to apply myself to serve my community through this important trade.

Thank you for taking the time!

 Fun FAQs

  • I’ve been driving for over 10 years and have a clean drivers abstract.

  • I was living in Calgary for the past few years and felt the need to live closer to the ocean. I love to surf and explore new spots so South Island seemed like the perfect place to plant my feet.

    There was also a full week of -40C last Winter.. Me and my lady knew it was time for a change.

    I’ve been in Victoria for almost two years now and absolutely love it here.

  • Yes, I can fit and work in tight places no problem.

  • I have been a photographer most of my life. I really enjoy capturing and documenting life as it unfolds in front of me. It makes for great memories to look back on.

  • Actually yeah, how did you know?

    When I was 17, I saved up a good chunk of change and lived in my small SUV for 7 months for fun. Leaving my home in Toronto, I took my time driving South until I hit the West Coast. I spent most of my time teaching myself how to surf Tofino to San Diego. Time and money well spent.

  • These questions are getting out of control. No I can’t physically juggle. But metaphorically I can juggle a few things at once.
