About NVQ's
An NVQ is a National Vocational Qualification agreed and accredited by the Qualifications Curriculum Authority (QCA). NVQ’s have been designed to aid individuals currently working in industry in obtaining a qualification relevant to the role which they currently undertake, and which can run alongside work activities enabling individuals to improve their skills, knowledge and understanding whilst progressing their career in full time employment.
An NVQ, being work based, peer supported, assessed and externally verified by an Awarding Body is an ideal route to show that an individual can deliver real work within a real work environment.
An NVQ shows the ability to exhibit both academic and vocational expertise, which in the future employers may be looking for.
Candidates will produce a portfolio of evidence accumulated, based on day to day work activities which will be assessed against the National Occupation Standards (NOS). Candidates will be supported in the generation of this evidence to fill any gaps and assist in the completion of the units.
Candidates are required to attend 1 induction day and 6 focus days and will be subject to 1 on-site observation.
To begin an NVQ you must identify the qualification relevant to your job role and complete the skills scan to identify your current position in enrolling for your chosen qualification.
Apply by submitting the completed skills scan, along with a registration form and current CV, for an assessment decision to be made on your acceptance for the qualification.

Time Frame
We aim to get candidates through their chosen qualification within 12 months from their initial introductory day. Timescales for individual programmes reflect commitment, employer support and effective participation in the range of underpinning activities that the Association offers. In extenuating circumstances an individual’s course can be extended beyond the 12 month period.
