We carry out a thorough profiling process (free of charge) with each and every candidate before enrolment to make 100% sure that the qualification is achievable before you start. We have agreed an approach with CSCS to enable learners to receive their CSCS card in light of the new requirements.

Delivering centres must ensure they have evidence that candidates meet these requirements prior to registering them on this qualification. Technically Yes, you can fail any NVQ.

This means that you must now provide details of the specific construction area (endorsement) that the learner was assessed in for their supervision competency. The Gold Supervisor CSCS card evidences that you have completed a NVQ level 3 with a focus on supervision. For example, you may complete the NVQ level 3 in Occupational Work Supervision or the NVQ level 3 in Construction Contracting Operations. How do I get a Gold CSCS Card? If this sounds like you, then a Level 3 NVQ is for you and this can be confirmed by a brief discussion with me having first forwarded your CV for reference purposes.
