I am thinking about doing an ICA course but plan on going out on my own rather than on a site once completed. was just wondering how you are able to obtain your svq if your not on site for an assesor to come out or will they need to come to the customers home?
 
On-Site Assessment and Training (OSAT)
This helps experienced workers get the qualifications to prove they can do the job. It turns your existing skills and experience into a nationally recognised qualification such as an NVQ or SVQ.
The whole process is carried out through a number of visits on site so you don't have to take time off to go to college.
This also helps you qualify for a Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) card - important if you want to work on big construction projects.
For more information about OSAT, visit the OSAT sectionof the ConstructionSkills website.
Experienced Worker Practical Assessment (EWPA)
This is a fast route through the ConstructionSkills/City & Guilds awarding body. It is available for workers with a minimum of five years experience and who don’t need any further training.
It involves spending a day having your skills and knowledge assessed at an off-site location, normally your NVQ centre. This can sometimes be done at weekends.
All the skills needed to pass the NVQ are included in one task, which is observed by an approved assessor. It is currently only available for certain trades.
For 4 quick and easy steps to EWPA, visit the EWPA section of the Construction Skills website.


Good luck...:thumbsup:

Hi Shieldsy

Re: NVQ Assessments.

An NVQ assessment can be carried out in domestic situations. Our assessors will come to assess you in your customer’s home. This assessment can take place during the week days or even on a Saturday if more convenient.

For further information please email me or contact the centre.

Regards
Margaret
Senior Administrator NVQ/ICA Coordinator
