We were the first organisation to be awarded approval to offer National Vocational Qualifications in level 5 Construction Project Management, in 2005 we received Chartered Building Consultancy status from the CIOB and are consistently awarded 'A' grades for assessments, centre management and internal verification from Edexcel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each candidate is given help in starting off on the NVQ. The assessor will meet with him/her to explain how to use the NVQ documents, how to present the portfolio, gather the evidence, explain where to send the NVQ work, what happens to it when it is received at the centre, and to answer any questions.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2146349572548362122-4007594004616824906?l=caslgroup.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fnews.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://caslgroup.co.uk/news/2009/01/national-vocational-qualifications.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (searchfirstmick)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146349572548362122.post-1678682094965469308</guid><pubDate>Thu, 15 Jan 2009 19:57:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-01-15T19:59:46.609Z</atom:updated><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>nvqs in construction</category><title>NVQs in Construction</title><description>Here at CASL we are an approved centre for NVQs in Construction at level 3, 4 and 5 with the joint awarding body of Edexcel, Chartered Institute of Building and the Institution of Civil Engineers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NVQ's in Construction combined with passing a Health and Safety test at the appropriate level, means a candidate can then apply for a CSCS card.
