NVQ's
An NVQ (National Vocational Qualification, or SVQ for Scotland) in the UK is a work-based qualification that assesses a person's competence in a specific job role. It is designed to demonstrate that an individual has the necessary skills and knowledge to perform their job effectively.
Our Assessors will work with each candidate to ensure competence through simulated practical demonstrations of skills, workplace observations, and the collection of evidence from the workplace. This can include portfolios of work, witness testimonies, and reflective accounts.

Competency Assurance Service
Competency Assurance is the process of evaluating workforce knowledge and skills to identify any gaps. The outcomes of this assessment can then be used to develop training programs aimed at addressing these gaps.
Success of the process is measured through a final evaluation against internationally recognized third-party standards.
If you've acquired a site and aren't sure if your workforce are as safe or efficient as they could be, Competence Assurance can give you the data you need.
