NVQs

NVQs, or National Vocational Qualifications, are competency-based qualifications that assess individuals’ ability to perform specific tasks effectively in the workplace. They are available across a wide range of industries and sectors, including construction. NVQs are designed to recognise and validate the skills and knowledge individuals possess, regardless of how they were acquired, whether through formal training, work experience, or self-study.

Assessment for NVQs typically involves gathering evidence of competence through practical demonstrations, observations, work products, and sometimes written assessments.

These qualifications offer a flexible and practical route for individuals to develop and demonstrate their skills, enhancing their employability and career prospects within their chosen field.
