Plumbing courses
The training at TAFE Queensland has been first class. I've experienced all different things including things you don't encounter on the job.
In terms of asking for help from a teacher they were always there, sending a simple email or making a phone call, or even giving you a call on the weekend. I was very lucky to have a teacher come out one weekend and spend his time going through an assessment with me
