Different types of plastering

What's the difference between plastering, skimming, bonding, and rendering, and do all plasterers use these terms?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Bonding is used as a base coat ie to prepare rough walls so you can plaster skim smoothly to finish off. Render is a base coat or a Finnish coat made up of sand and cement normally used on the outside of houses
