He has trained in both schools and colleges and continues to lecture at the College of the Peak in Derbyshire, the Building Crafts College in London and the on-site training to British Waterways staff. He has also been instrumental in the setting up of training centres, and is a recognised assessor for the NVQ3 in Heritage.
