Qualification background
The units which form this qualification have been derived from National Occupational Standards (NOS). The NOS are a collection of performance statements that detail the underpinning knowledge and understanding required to meet minimum standards which must be achieved within an occupation. The NOS for the construction industry are developed by CITB-ConstructionSkills in partnership with the Construction Industry Council (CIC), the UK Commission for Employment and Skills (UKCES) and Qualifications Panel (UKNQP).
For further information about the NOS which have been used to form the units which make up this qualification, please see the ‘Additional Information’ section of the units (see Section 2 of this document).
Cskills Awards’ units and qualifications are developed in collaboration with industry representatives, federations and trainers who ensure our qualifications contain up to date knowledge and skills requirements to promote the employability of the learners who achieve them.
Qualifications that use the QCF rules are made up of units. This provides flexible ways to get a qualification. Each unit has a credit value which tells you how many credits are awarded when a unit is completed. The credit value of the unit is based on: • one credit for those learning outcomes achievable in 10 hours of learning • learning time – defined as the time taken by learners at the level of the unit, on average, to complete the learning outcomes of the unit to the standard determined by the assessment criteria. The credit value of the unit will remain constant in all contexts, regardless to the assessment method used for the qualification(s) to which it contributes.
