The Certificate III in Wall and Floor Tiling provides comprehensive training for wall and floor tiling, and covers all practical and theoretical aspects of the trade.
Much of wall and floor tiling work is straightforward, but it often requires skill and judgement.
You must understand working drawings of buildings and be able to apply basic mathematics. Wall and floor tilers also do more complicated tiling work such as mosaics, pools and spas.
