Red card? Is it time to qualify with NVQ?

DON’T GET STUCK AT RED

Just a reminder to keep an eye on red card expiry dates! A red card running out represents a red flag for the Operative and their employer – it’s time to qualify to a full, coloured CCDO card with NVQ.

​NVQ’s aren’t as difficult or tedious as you might think – if an Operative is good at their job, works in the right way and they can demonstrate this to an assessor, there’s nothing to worry about.

The CITB Skills & Training Fund combined with your CITB automatic grant will, in many cases, fully fund the cost of an NVQ. NDTG can support you with applying for the Skills & Training Fund and/or registering for NVQ courses.
