How workplace assessment works
Your assessor will agree an evidence plan around the work you do. Evidence may include workplace observations, photographs, job records, work documents and professional discussions, depending on the unit requirements. You must demonstrate the required competence; enrolment alone does not guarantee achievement of the qualification.
CSCS card route
A relevant Level 2 NVQ may support an application for a Blue CSCS Skilled Worker Card, but the correct occupation and card requirements must be checked. Passing the required CITB Health, Safety and Environment test and meeting CSCS eligibility rules may also be necessary. Contact DB College before enrolling if your main goal is a CSCS card.
