We have 2 centres in Croydon, Surrey: The Station Buildings at Waddon Train S
tation and a second centre a minute’s walk away in Stafford Road where we hold the electrical courses. Getting here is easy, with Waddon Station having a direct rail link with London Victoria, London Bridge and Clapham Junction Stations (approximately 30 minutes). We are about 10 miles from Junction 7 or Junction 8 on the M25. We will send you a map and travel information with your booking confirmation and details of local hotels and B&B’s if required. There is free parking nearby and our facilities include a modest canteen. We also carry a wide range of reasonably priced tools.
The majority of courses we hold here are very much hands on, with tools and equipment initially explained and demonstrated by the instructors. Fact sheets will be supplied, so there is no need for too many notes! After completing each foundation course you will receive a Building Training Centre Certificate of Continuous Professional Development.
If you are attending one of our practical courses, you will get dirty so you should bring working clothes. For all courses, we will supply all the tools and materials you will be using while you are here, but you must have STEEL TOE CAP FOOTWEAR to wear throughout the course.
Gift vouchers are available for the ‘impossible to buy for’ person. Why not give them a new skill?
You are welcome to visit our centre at any time during opening hours (8.00 am until 6.00 pm).
We are a totally independent company trading as Builder Training Centres Ltd. We have no links or association with any other company.
