Cleaning Course advice

auldblerk

Can anybody recommend a good cleaning course ? Preferably online (found a couple but don't know if they are recognised by potential employers.) Have an NVQ but it could be beneficial to add another cleaning qualification to my CV
Cheers.

there is a NVQ for cleaning? i thought they are called 'key skills certificates' or something.

I have an NVQ in 'Cleaning and Support Services'
Actually, there are 2 online cleaning courses ..

What I'm looking for is somebody who has done either course (or any other one, online or not) and if it helped them get a job, not ridicule.

Honestly auldberk, for something like cleaning an employer is far more interested in experience and reliability than some certificate off the internet. If there is something in particular that you want to learn then ask on the Old Style board, they have solutions for all things domestic.

Great, some positive advice, point me in the direction of the old style board; I have the experience, just want to swell the CV with something academic.

I apologise if you felt I was ridiculing you. It was certainly not aimed at you, rather the concept that an online course would be relevant.


In my opinion it would not be useful in the slightest for the purposes of job searching.


Practical hands on roles cannot be taught online.

No problem and I respect your opinion.

I have a cleaner. I've had three different cleaners in the past. Each time, when trying to find one I've never looked at certificates. I didn't know they existed.

I looked at their Facebook page and website. I read their customer reviews. I checked their key safe system, products they used and cost.

Certificates didn't come in to it.
