NVQ and Qualified Courses

National Vocational Qualifications - A wide spectrum of NVQ training is available on request

National Vocational Qualifications are developed from national occupational standards that are based on typical job responsibilities within an industry. NVQ's are work-based qualifications that assess an individuals competence to do a job.

The NVQ is made up of 6 units, 3 of which are mandatory and any 3 specific job related.

There are no formal entry requirements learners are not required to have any prior qualifications to achieve the NVQ. Learners are principally assessed on their ability to do the job rather than by means of examinations. They take account of previous experience and allow the individual to work at their own pace.
