you don't need a training course for tile and grout....just a rotary slow speed srubbing machine with tank and high ph cleaner in there.
A polyprop brush attached to the scruber will clean the floor and grout like new.

 A hard floor wand with your carpet cleaning machine would be good to pick up the slurry.

Also you would be able to clean many other types of floors inc limestone but using lithofin Wexa.....they come up like new!

My rotary has done lots of jobs. Paid £125 for it years ago. Two days ago it earned £225 and £300 is typical

What do you mean you don't need training to clean hard floors ,that is ridiculous,you can easliy damage a hard floor by cleaning with the wrong procedure to suit the flooring being cleaned and end up with a hefty claim agaist you.
Nu-life do a comprehensive training course.
