Training is the single most important step a professional carpet cleaner can take - it will set you apart from your "competitors", give you the confidence and knowledge to deal with tricky situations and keep you out of trouble!
Are you ready to become a true professional?
As you know, the carpet cleaning industry is unregulated. Individuals can simply purchase equipment and operate as carpet cleaners without formal training or being required to meet any standard.
Well-intentioned but uninformed people in our industry, attaining mediocre cleaning outcomes, has resulted in the carpet cleaning industry being viewed negatively by the public at large. Being driven by price rather than quality has made it difficult for operators to survive.
According to research, it seems only 12% of home owners in WA choose to have their carpets cleaned on a regular basis due to this negative view.
But you can change that for yourself! Professional training by a qualified and experienced instructor can be arranged through the Advantage Group, with more training scheduled for an eight week period starting early February. This will get you the Qualification of either Certificate II in Asset Maintenance (Carpet Cleaning) PRM20604 or Certificate III in Asset Maintenance (Carpet Cleaning) PRM 30604. The format will be one day of class contact per week, with some hands-on involved as well. Inexperienced operators will also have the opportunity of one-on-one hands-on training days as well. Assignment work for the theory part will also need to be completed from week to week, with all the assistance you will need to get yourself qualified to Cert II or Cert III levels.
Please contact our Training and Technical Officer, Frank Preo, either through email enquiries@agccwa.com.au or mobile 0418 914 097 to discuss your training requirements. Several groups will be put through during 2012, so if you miss out this time around there will be other opportunities.
Take the step, you'll be glad you did!
