Not so long ago, school education was centred around academic qualifications, meaning many youngsters ended up with no qualifications at all. This meant that they were forced into the role of the unskilled labour force. In the North East, an area famed for its skilled craftsmen, this usually resulted in unemployment.Today, of course, we have NVQs the equivalent of academic qualifications, but in practical skills. They are the gateway to skilled employment, while filling a gap in the shortage of skilled labour. Skilled plasterers are in short supply - meaning there has never been a better time to take plastering NVQs than now. Students who have taken NVQ plastering courses are regarded in the same light as those with fine arts degrees. Unlike many practical skills, plastering training is equally suitable for both men and women. You can begin at any age - in fact, older people often make the best students.

How can business shippers decrease costs in their supply chains when each January they are subjected to rate increases by the worlds largest shipping carriers? And how can advertisers continue to captivate their customers with creative new product offerings? AdShips Pay-Per-Ship could be an answer. This new category provides an innovative solution that uniquely blends shipping and advertising. Heres how it works: shippers are paid to insert third-party advertisements into or on their parcels. Shippers choose non-competing, complementary products to advertise to their recipient customers. For example, a wine shipper may choose to insert advertising for a cheese product or a bread brand, as their customers are likely to enjoy both of those products. Likewise, a portable handheld device shipper could advertise a battery brand or an extended warranty program in their shipment.In addition, Pay-Per-Ship greatly enhances each advertisers dollar spent. For years, direct mailing open rates have been in the low single-digits, creating a mediocre return on a heavy investment. But the underlying idea of Pay-Per-Ship permits the shipper to customize the advertising to an already receptive and...more
