Ekona Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 So how do you become a member, then? Do they come and check your premises, paperwork and past works, or is it just a pay-some-money-and-agree-to-the-code-of-conduct kinda thing? Congrats either way btw, I'm just genuinely curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats either way btw, I'm just genuinely curious A bit of both. Yes you have to pay to become a member but only after a series of interviews and inspections because you have to pass a series of practice codes which they set out for you to meet. In the past when we looked into gettjng our selves as insurance approved, we found that the there was no such standard. As long as you can work quick, produce satisfactory results and willing to bend financially in favour of the insurance companies cheaply, you will be insurance approved. Dealership approved is much more difficult. You need to be part of an automotive board such as the VBRA even before you can approach a dealer for work.

ioneabee Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Excellent - well done In the building trade we have "The Federation of Master Builders" - sounds impressive doesn't it ?? !! - In actuality, you pays your money and hey presto - you're a "Master Builder" :wacko: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taras Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 lol. I guess something like building trade is more difficult to regulate because you work all over the place and a lot of it is cash in hand work. Funny enough I have heard of TFOMB in the past.
